"Unless a significant investment is made in children and childcare, all of humanity's most fundamental long-term social problems will remain fundamental long-term social problems."

Introduction –

The Crisis:

Society today offers families, educators and especially children a very limited set of options to deal with “undesirable” behaviors and these options all stem from an authoritarian, punitive mind set. While this mind set was appropriate for developing and promoting the transition from agrarian villager to industrial factory worker, we no longer live in that world. Yet we treat children with the same outdated tools that are no longer effective.

The Answer:

DawnTalk™, is a method of communicating and guiding children without resorting to shaming, blaming, judging, belittling, threatening or punishing. When families and educators use these methods children avoid negative behaviors such as resisting, rebelling, retaliating, bullying, withdrawing and even addictive behaviors. Ultimately, DawnTalk™ is about building a improving the quality of life for children.
