As parents, you want your children to behave well at home, in school, or wherever they are, whether you are with them or not. But sometimes kids have no idea how to handle new situations such as introducing themselves to new classmates. Or, they may repeatedly struggle with familiar, but problem situations for them such as whining when asked to do a chore or refusing to share a toy when playing with others. Many problem behaviors can be prevented or reduced if you teach your children the behaviors you want them to use instead. On this DVD, you'll see the Common Sense Parenting® technique of Preventive Teaching, showing children what they need to do and say in a future situation and practicing it in advance. Often, what you need to teach a child is an appropriate social skill - how to follow instructions, how to accept "no" for an answer, how to share - to replace the problem behavior. The key to preventing problems is teaching before a potential problem situation occurs, when both you and your child are calm. Preparing children by helping them learn social and life skills not only helps prevent disruptive behavior, but can also save them from experiencing awkward, embarrassing, or even dangerous situations.

The Impossible Years (1968) David Niven, Lola AlbrightDirector: Michael GordonCo-stars: Chad Everett, Ozzie Nelson, Cristina Ferrare92 minutes, MetrocolorDVD-R: Region ALLA charming adaptation of the play by Bob Fisher and Arthur Marx (Groucho's son) that ran in 1965 on Broadway. The title refers to those years when a child goes from puberty to adulthood, and, although we've seen this generation gap story before, it is well-handled by the moviemakers and provides a large chunk of wit, peppered by insights. Niven is a psychiatrist working at a university. His speciality is teenage problems, and he is stunned to learn that his teenage daughter, Ferrare, has been arrested for protesting on campus. This is anathema, so Niven attempts to straighten Ferrare out. The first thing he does is suggest that she make some new friends. She does this, and soon the house is chock-full of kids, all making so much noise that his beloved peace and quiet is gone and he can't work on his latest research. He needs some time for himself, so he lets Ferrare sail to Catalina Island with a group of her friends. Niven and wife Albright are somewhat surprised by the return of Ferrare, who seems to have matured quite a bit over a weekend. Ferrare now admits that she married a man on Catalina. She won't tell them the name of her husband because they are threatening to have it annulled. Niven begins questioning all of her young male friends, but they deny being the husband. Ferrare is so embarrassed by this that she runs away, with Niven racing after her on a motorcycle. The chase ends on campus where Niven is thrown from the bike and lands at the feet of the members of the school board, who have just finished appointing him as the chief of the new psychiatric facility. Niven is relieved to learn that Ferrare has not married one of the slack-jawed youths but his colleague, Everett. All seems to be working itself out when the youngest daughter, Darleen Carr, enters and announces that she has a new boy friend. Niven and Albright realize then that the impossible years are not over.The film is somewhat dated (hippies and protests, etc.), but the woes of raising teenage daughters are timeless, and this is as good a depiction of those problems as any film you may see. Ferrare left movies to become the wife of auto magnate John De Lorean, by whom she had two children before they divorced. The excellent music was by Don Costa, one of Sinatra's favorite arrangers. The title song was written by the singing group the Tokens, and sung by another group, the Cowsills. The Tokens named themselves thus because they were one of the early black groups in the business.

A young married couple struggle with their personal problems and their union and the forthcoming birth oftheir unwanted child in this grim domestic drama.

Though pregnant, the wife is constantly drunk and the two constantly bicker. One night, they have row and the husband takes off to stay with his now-impoverished former coach thereby setting the stage for further turmoil and tragedy.

Each child's pictures define their feelings and quest for sources of strength in their families.

"Don't fall asleep" -- words to live by for Elm Street teens. Not a problem for fans wide awake with fear (and glee) as they experience these first 8 Nightmare movies released from 1984 to 2003. Each features Robert Englund's masterfully macabre incarnation of slouch-hatted, razor-fingered Freddy Krueger, who mixes wicked wit with even wickeder mayhem as he haunts teens when they're asleep and most vulnerable. A newspaper article about children who died after having fearsome nightmares provided the real-life springboard for filmmaker Wes Craven's breakthrough series. Perhaps that underlying reality helps make these shockers so unnerving. Or maybe it's just that we all like a good scare...and that this series consistently, imaginatively delivers some of the best.

Veteran documentary filmmaker Kirby Dick (DERRIDA) provides a focused look at child molestation perpetrated by Catholic priests and the associated cover-up by the church hierarchy in TWIST OF FAITH. Telling a true story, Toledo firefighter Tony Comes is the film's movingly blunt subject. At age 14, a priest and religion teacher in his school began to abuse him, as well as a host of other boys. Tony admitted the abuse to his family, but chose to move on with his life--until years later when he moved to a new neighborhood and discovered his abuser living only five houses away. Unleashing his buried rage, Tony sues both the former priest and the church. The guilt, hatred, and desire for revenge tear Tony apart. He questions his relationship with the church and its ideals, which had always provided the moral basis of his life. He has problems relating to his family and friends--arguing with lifelong friends over the church's role in his abuse, arguing with his mother over her response to his lawsuit, and arguing

The Baby Maker (1970) Barbara Hershey, Collin Wilcox-HorneDirector: James BridgesCo-stars: Sam Groom, Scott Glenn109 minutes, TechnicolorDVD-R: Region ALLBarbara Hershey stars as the "baby maker" of the title. Tish Gray (Hershey) hires herself out to married couple Jay and Suzanne Wilcox (Sam Groom and Collin Wilcox-Horne), who've been unable to conceive a child of their own. Tish agrees to bear the child for them, assuming that her hippie boyfriend, Ted Jacks (Scott Glenn), will go along with the plan. The problem is that Tish must allow Jay to impregnate her, causing severe strains on both couple's relationships. In 1970, the notion of surrogate motherhood was radical in the extreme, so The Baby Maker seemed quite progressive and daring. This served as the theatrical-feature directorial debut for screenwriter James Bridges.

The Chalk Garden (1964) Deborah Kerr, Hayley MillsDirector: Ronald NeameCo-stars: John Mills, Edith Evans, Elizabeth Sellars106 minutes, TechnicolorDVD-R: Region ALLThis film adaptation of Edith Bagnold's play stars Deborah Kerr as Miss Madrigal, the secretive new governess of British "problem child" Laurel (Hayley Mills). Both Madrigal and faithful butler Maitland (John Mills) are aware that Laurel's atrocious behavior stems from her belief that her oft-married mother (Elizabeth Sellars) does not love her. Madrigal determines to straighten out Laurel before she becomes totally unmanageable and hurts someone else. She knows what she's doing; Madrigal has just been released from a long prison term, having been charged with the murder of her stepsister. Dame Edith Evans steals every scene she's in as Laurel's wealthy grandmother, who is pulled away from tending her precious garden only when it appears that she has a murderess in her house (the old lady indicates that she's somewhat thrilled by the prospect). The Chalk Garden represented a "stretch" for Hayley Mills, who previously had been confined to sugary-sweet Disney heroines.
