subject: Why 'good Enough Parents' Aren't Good Enough [print this page] Parents have different attitudes when it comes to their children. They vary not only in their way of thinking but they also vary in their style, their teaching methods, and their disciplining tactics. There are those who are strict disciplinarians while some are free-thinkers. Some are model parents while others are post-modernists. But have you ever heard of the concept of the 'Good Enough Parents'?
The good enough parents are pretty self-explanatory by the classification itself. These are the types of parents who are much into the lines of being pretty normal. They don't go out and party often, they don't abuse their children, they don't have high paying jobs that would make them have fat pockets but they are able to support their family just right. These are the type of parents who are not and will most probably not break out of the stereotype or status quo.
But being good enough doesn't necessarily mean that they don't experience the problems of any other parent. Good enough parents are also a target audience for the Total Transformation Program because good enough parenting is subject to the same types of problems other parents have. These types of parents aren't immune to the bad, obnoxious, abusive or inappropriate behavior their children exhibit. So it would be logical to conclude that good enough parents aren't exemptions to the possible manipulative and conditioning tactics of children.
Good enough parents still encounter the same pitfalls that children with behavioral problems can be responsible for. The manipulations, deceiving tactics, and conditioning schemes that children with behavioral problems can do to parents are not selective.
Whether you are a disciplinarian, or a full-time working parent, or a good enough parent it doesn't matter in which classification or parenting stereotype you belong. Behavioral problems in children and their implications are not specific to any type of parent. They can affect you just like any other parent. What's more important is how you, as a parent, prepare and train yourself in handling these problems.
