“To aid parents dealing with behavioral issues in their children, Dr. Melillo penned his second book, Reconnected Kids, in which he provides guidelines for getting families back on track, starting with setting a plan.
In his research, Dr. Melillo found that, ‘the biggest problem we had to overcome was that both parents were not on the same page when it came to what they expected from their children,’ he says. ‘The number one reason amongst any child for bad behavior is really an inconsistency of message from the parent.’
To correct that, he advises parents to come together and outline a list of expectations and rules for their children. After reaching an agreement, parents should then bring their kids into the discussion.
‘You have to be able to sit down and know what you want,’ he explains. ‘You have to know why you want that and then the action steps become pretty clear. I did this program with my children when they were five or six-years-old. Many of their goals that we talked about at six, they’re actually accomplishing now.’ “
