About this ebook
How would you be able to parent if you were neither able to speak to your child, nor able to show him or her what to do? Whether your communication with your child is verbal or non verbal, it is of obvious importance. It would follow then that the quality of communication you have with your child is very important too. The higher the quality of your communication with your child, the better you will be able to parent him or her
When you parent your children you need them to comply. This is in your own best interest and in the best interest of your child. This means that, as far as possible, you need to avoid language and situations that would lead your child to resist what you are saying. This book offers you advanced skills and techniques to get compliance from your child while being respectful of him or her.
One of the most fulfilling things we can do for ourselves and our children is to develop a positive communication style. Most of us were raised by a negative communication style and it comes natural to us as parents now. We will either allow it to continue to cycle though our children into their children’s lives or we make the change. Learn how to benefit yourself and your child with the skills offered in this book.

Hi, I am Alan Johnstone. In the last 12 years I have spent most of my waking time helping people overcome emotional difficulties developed in their childhood. I have decided to tackle some of the causes of these emotional difficulties by writing educational books. Books also allow me to move past helping one person at a time. A book can help countless people. It is for this reason that I chose to become an author. Parenting is a massive undertaking and has many aspects to it. In my books I do my best to provide parents with the advanced communication skills they may need to ensure that they leave a beneficial and lasting legacy in the life of their child.

Preface
Greetings and welcome. I am Alan Johnstone. I believe that the skills I am going to provide you will make a huge difference in the quality of the relationship you have with your child.
In the last 12 years I have spent most of my waking time helping people overcome emotional difficulties developed in their childhood. Parenting is a massive undertaking and has many aspects to it. In this work I will do my best to provide you with the advanced communication skills you will need to ensure that you leave a beneficial and lasting legacy in your child’s life.
To master the skills offered in this manual and on the audio file you will probably need to go through the material a number of times. I suggest you master the concepts one at a time. Read and listen to a concept and then implement it until it comes naturally to you, then move onto the next. Sometimes you may find it beneficial to write a few examples down to practise.

Audio files.
There is an audio course available with this ebook. Enhanced ebooks with audio files are only able to be read by a few devices so I have made the audio files available for download separately. The audio files are invaluable as they help you, the parent, to hear how the skills are used verbally. Please seriously consider obtaining the audio files for yourself as it will assist you in recognising where emphasis, pause and changes in tonality are used to highlight suggestion to the child's subconscious mind. Often it is these subtle things which make all the difference in communication. I really want you to be able to use these skills.

We communicate naturally and we automatically accept that the way in which we communicate with others is normal and acceptable. Seldom do we consider the quality of our communication. This is especially true when we are communicating
