Author : Dr Thomas Gordon

The author of this book is the renowned American psychologist, Dr Thomas Gordon, who previously studied under humanistic psychologist, Carl Ransom Rogers. Dr Gordon obtained his doctorate from Chicago University where he later stayed on to teach. He was the president of the California Psychology Society, and was a consultant to the 1970 White House Conference on Children. Dr Gordon was the creator of the world-famous Gordon Model. Originally this method was used to improve parent-child relationships, but it was later developed into a general model for improving all interpersonal relationships.

Key Insights from P.E.T. Parent Effectiveness Training

  • Effective communication is the cornerstone of positive parenting; Dr. Gordon emphasizes the importance of listening and validating children's feelings to foster open dialogue. By adopting an empathetic approach, parents can create a nurturing environment that encourages children to express themselves without fear of judgment.
  • The book introduces the concept of 'I-messages' as a powerful tool for expressing feelings and needs without blaming or criticizing the child. This method helps in reducing defensiveness and promotes constructive conversations between parents and children.
  • Conflict resolution strategies outlined in P.E.T. aim to equip parents with techniques to handle disputes effectively. By teaching children to take part in problem-solving, parents empower them to develop critical thinking and collaboration skills.
