..Gordon to offer parent training
Many parents all over the
| country are becoming involved
’ in a new course on how to raise
nappy, responsible, and
cooperative children.
» » P aren t Effectiveness
Training” (P.e.T.) is a
nationwide program to give
mothers and fathers the skills
> they need for the world’s har
dest job — parenthood.
Parents today are blamed but
seldom trained, according to
Dr. Thomas Gordon, clinical
psychologist and founder of the
course. Since he first made this
, observation in 1962, Dr. Gor
don’s course has mushroomed
into a network of over 4,000
instructors, reaching a quarter
1 of a million parents.
A course in P.E.T. is being
planned by the Community
< Service Office at Gordon Junior
College. An introductory
session will be held tomorrow at
7:30 p.m. in Russell Hall, Room
240, on the campus. Bob Dixon,
psychologist and certified
P.E.T. instructor, will conduct
.the session.
The philosophy behind P.E.T.
advocates neither of the
•traditional approaches of
'authoritarian or permissive
parenthood. Instead, Dr.
Gordon proposes a “No-Loae
Method” of family discipline.
This special set of skills helps
parents resolve conflicts bet
ween parent and child so that
both feel satisfied and both are
willing to carry out the

Bob Dixon discusses P.E.T. techniques with student
enrolled in the course in Griffin.
agreements.
“The main benefit of P.E.T.,”
according to Dixon, “is that it
keeps the channels of com
munication open. P.E.T.
enables you to avoid punish
ment and help your child learn
to solve his own problems, to
become more responsible and
independent.”
Dixon said that among the
skills taught in P.E.T. are
learning to listen so children
will share their problems,
resolve conflicts, and to respect
each other’s values.
A major goal of P.E.T. is to
help parents become more
accepting of their children.
“Never is the behavior of
another person always
acceptable to us,” Dixon said.
“But when we feel good about
ourselves, the child’s behavior
will become more acceptable to
us. Several research studies on
P.E.T. show marked im-
provements in parental at
titudes as well as much more
favorable feelings on the part of
children toward their parents.”
P.E.T. works with children of
all ages, including teenagers,
and it reduces rebellion,
irresponsibility, selfishness,
and resentment so frequent in
today’s families.
In the 24-hour course, parents
attend classes one night a week
for eight weeks. Between
sessions, they begin applying at
home the new skills they
acquire in class. Many report
immediate results — fewer
conflicts, warmer relationships
with their children, rules and
regulations agreed to and
carried out, and more open and
honest communication between
parent and child.
