"Cutting" is a visible sign to the world that you are hurting.

Hurt people hurt people.

You cannot reason with someone who is being unreasonable.

The mistake that Sharon and I both made is we never set any boundaries.  (Ozzy Osbourne)

Wouldn't it be nice if children would simply listen and learn.

"To be a man, a boy must see a man."  (J.R. Moehringer)

The quickest way to change your child’s behaviour is to first change your own.

Removing a child from a traumatic environment does not remove the trauma from the child's memory.

The best inheritance  parents can give their children is a few minutes of their time each day.

"Unexpressed feeling never die. They are buried alive and come back later in ugly ways." (Stephen Covey)

How Can Behavioural Management Systems Help?

There is an overwhelming array of theories, books, courses, seminars, and videos designed to assist parents. Unfortunately this help is frequently confusing and often contradictory. Behavioural Management Systems helps parents figure out practical ways of solving behaviour problems.

Your knowledge of your child and family, combined with Rick’s experience can lead to solutions to your behaviour concerns.

Parents may not feel like experts but nobody knows their child better than them and nobody knows their own strengths and weaknesses better than them and nobody is in a better position to decide what’s best for their child!

What kinds of behaviour problems:

  • noncompliance
  • aggression
  • self-injurious behaviour
  • running away
  • bedtime/mealtime problems
  • school issues / homework
  • substance abuse
  • whining
  • temper tantrums
  • disrespect
  • swearing
  • messy rooms
  • sibling / peer problems
  • more

What parents need most are ideas because with ideas we get options.

Rick Harper has been providing ideas to parents and teachers for over 40 years.

Parents' Comments

“We were so naive. We thought our son’s poor behaviour was just a phase he was passing through. Thankfully you led us ‘out of the wilderness'”

(N.S. – London)
