Co-Developer of The Phonics Game㤠Introduces The DQ Factor

All parents face the daunting and inevitable task of disciplining their children. The problem arises when the ¡§how¡¨ comes before the ¡§why.¡¨ In his groundbreaking new book with Integrity Publishers, Discovering Your Child¡¦s DQ Factor: The Discipline Quotient Factor, Dr. Greg Cynaumon proposes that by determining the personality type of a child you can best understand what is driving misbehavior.

Based on years of field-tested research, Dr. Cynaumon shows that every child has a personal Discipline Quotient¡Xa disciplinary ¡§temperament¡¨ that makes some methods of care work better than others. Once this temperament is identified, parents can pick from a menu of disciplinary approaches that are proven to work most effectively with their child¡¦s DQ factor. Understanding and putting The DQ Factor principles to work promise to lead to a reduction of conflicts, guaranteed compliance, improved relationships at home, and greater fulfillment in parenting.

Incorporating the principles of God¡¦s word, Dr. Cynaumon illuminates what is true for all of God¡¦s children: ¡§kids misbehave for one primary goal¡Xto feel significant¡Kmisbehaving is just a symptom that your child is feeling insignificant, unimportant, and perhaps unloved.¡¨ A renowned author and talk show host, Dr. Cynaumon is also a therapist who infuses his faith into everything he does. ¡§It is my practice to look at all scientific and psychological theory through a prism of Christianity and what the Bible says about the subject.¡¨ He urges parents to be proactive in disciplining their children not only as a means of changing behavior, but of enhancing a child¡¦s sense of self worth.

Using quizzes for analysis, The DQ factor helps parents determine the underlying motives for children¡¦s behavior to see where they fit into one of four distinct personality types: DQ Factor #1¡XBears: The Strong Willed Controllers in the Zoo DQ Factor #2¡XMonkeys: The Manipulators and Attention-Getters in the Zoo DQ Factor #3¡XPorcupines: The Revenge-Seekers in the Zoo DQ Factor #4¡XLambs: The Defeatists in the Zoo

Each DQ Factor features innovative and specific types of discipline that are statistically proven to be universally effective for each child¡¦s personality type. Further techniques such as ¡§reflective listening¡¨ are also encouraged so parents and children can learn to communicate more effectively. Through The DQ Factor, caregivers will gain a fresh dimension of insights into what motivates children to misbehave. This groundbreaking volume promises to not only stop rebellion before it starts but also bring families closer together and make God¡¦s peace an everyday reality.
