Parents come in different shapes, sizes, and even types. There are parents who are strict in disciplining while there are some who are free and open-minded. There are the classical parents who stay with tradition while there are also post-modern parents who go with the flow of the season. But there are also some who are considered the ‘Good Enough’ Parents.

As you might have already assumed and guessed, the good enough parent must really be just what it means. Good enough. We can refer to the concept of ‘Good Enough’ Parent as a parenting stereotype. Good enough parents are the ones who are just slightly above average but certainly not among the ranks of the elite parents. Not just in the financial aspect, the good enough parents are those that live their lives and are able to provide for their families in a good enough manner of thinking.

Unfortunately, being good enough isn’t enough especially when it comes to dealing with children who show bad, obnoxious, abusive or inappropriate behavior. Good enough parents aren’t immune to the behavioral problems of children which is why good enough parents should also take a look into the Total Transformation Program by Dr. James Lehman. If you’re a good enough parent, or any parent for that matter, would you allow yourself to be manipulated or conditioned by your very own child?

Like any other parent, good enough parents are still susceptible to falling into the same parenting traps. They may attempt to confront their children but chances are they would still fall prey to the same manipulations and conditioning tactics. Children with behavioral problems are not selective and don’t give out immunity especially when it comes to parents.

So whether you are a good enough parent, or total disciplinarian, or just plain parent it doesn’t matter. Parenting problems are the same for all parents. What parents should focus on instead is on how they can train or prepare themselves when it comes to dealing with their children especially when it involves behavioral problems such as bad, obnoxious, abusive or inappropriate behavior.
