Every child is different, every parent is different, moods change, circumstances change, we all react differently; so why should positive parenting work in all cases for all children of all ages?
Positive parenting means dealing with a child's behavioural in a calm and fair way. It means focusing on the good rather than the bad behaviour and rewarding accordingly. Does your child get more attention when they are behaving well or when they are being badly? If the answer is 'when they are being naughty', then you may wish to read on and look at some ways of addressing this and putting a more positive spin on your parenting.
Why does it work?
It works because it builds on a child's desire to please you. They remember how they feel when they pleased you, and they like it and they want it to continue. It may work slightly differently for different children or ages, but in principal its the same for all.

Tips for Positive Parenting:
Don't resort to severe punishment in every case. Keep in mind that the children are learning and pushing boundaries to see what they can get away with. It's our responibility to show them what they can and can't do, and to help them learn this so they make their own decisions about behaviour.
