Triple P Program
The Triple P – Positive Parenting Program®
is one of the world’s most effective parenting programs.
At MdB Behavior you can follow the Group Teen parenting program
and I am also very happy to refer you to their many other trainings.
Positive Parenting program
Triple P is one of the few programs based on evidence from ongoing scientific research.
Triple P works by giving parents the skills to raise confident, healthy children and teenagers, and to build stronger family relationships. It also helps parents manage misbehaviour and prevent problems occurring in the first place.
But it doesn’t tell people how to parent. Rather, it gives them simple and practical strategies they can adapt to suit their own values, beliefs and needs.
Triple P is also different because it is not ‘one size-fits-all’. It’s a system that offers increasing levels of support to meet parents’ different needs. So parents can choose anything from one-off public seminars or self-help books to more detailed group courses or individual sessions.
Triple P is now used in 25 countries including the USA, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Belgium, Sweden, Germany, Japan, Iran, Hong Kong, Singapore, the Netherlands, Curacao, Switzerland and Romania. It has been translated from English into 19 other languages.

Group Teen Triple P
The Triple P – Positive Parenting Program® knows all parents have different needs.
That’s why Triple P has many different ways for you to get your parenting help. So you can choose what will suit you and your family best.
Is this your family?
Your teen's behavior has become too much for you to handle. At home, there's probably a lot of shouting and very little agreemment. Or maybe you don't bother trying to talk anymore. But you are worried. Where will this all end?
If this sounds familiar, then Group Teen Triple P can help you, and your teenager, get back on track.
Or, maybe it isn't that bad. It's just that you realize things can change very quickly. So you're keen to know as much as possible about positive parenting so you'll be prepared if hassles arise.
Group Teen Triple P can give you the support you need to be prepared!
What happens at Group Teen Triple P?
Group Teen Triple P is a great opportunity to meet other parents in similar situations – other parents who’ll support you and share stories with you. From the start, you’ll be given tips and suggestions to suit the needs of your family. You’ll see scenes from the Every Parent’s Guide to Teenagers DVD, which will show you how the ideas work in real life. And your workbook will give you the tools and information you need to start positive parenting straight away at home. Your Teen Triple P provider will guide you every step of the way and even provide backup phone support as you put your new skills into practice.
How long does it take and how big are the groups?
There are about 12 parents in a group session. Usually, each session lasts no more than two hours at a time. In all, you’ll attend no more than five group sessions – the first four should give you the tips you need to start positive parenting.
Then, you’ll have three weeks to practice Teen Triple P at home. Your Triple P provider will call you every week at a set time to find out how you’re doing and offer advice if you’re having any trouble. Those calls will last about 15 minutes.
Finally, you’ll meet up with your group and Triple P provider for one last session. This is a chance to go over any problems you may still have – and to congratulate yourself on how far you’ve come!
