NEW! Developing the Internal Child-Restitution Theory
Celebrate the power that your child has within to meet their needs, be
resilient, and work toward becoming the person they want to be by
using Restitution. This philosophy focuses on beliefs more than rules; on
responsibility more than obedience; and on respect, not gold stars. Learn

toward internal development.
