Free parenting guides in English
Choose one situation that is happening now. Each guide offers a practical first step, wording you can adapt and clear limits on when an online resource is not enough.
For adults · No account required · Educational guidance, not diagnosis or treatment
Pick the closest fit, not the perfect label.
Age ranges are a starting point. Adapt the language to your child, your family and any communication, sensory, learning or accessibility needs. If there is immediate danger or a medical emergency, use local emergency services rather than an online guide.
Calm, limits and transitions
Short, practical guides for adults supporting younger children. The aim is not to eliminate every difficult moment, but to make the adult response safer, clearer and more consistent.
Toddler tantrums without shouting
First steps for staying steady, setting a limit and reconnecting after a difficult moment—without expecting a script to stop every tantrum.
Switch off screens without a meltdown
A structured way to prepare the transition, hold the boundary and review what made stopping harder. Timings are examples to adapt, not universal rules.
Calm Behaviour Toolkit
Short scripts and first steps for tantrums, hitting, defiance, shouting and repair, with clear safety limits and routes to qualified help.
Help without taking over
Resources for building independence and making digital expectations visible. They support family conversations; they do not verify age, monitor a child or replace school, health or safeguarding professionals.
Homework and independence
How to help a child start, persist and ask for support while keeping the work—and the growing sense of competence—theirs.
Digital Family Passport
A guided family conversation about readiness, privacy, contact, boundaries and safer digital habits. It is an educational agreement, not age verification or surveillance.
Connection, privacy and safety
Begin with one observable concern and one conversation. Respect for privacy matters; it does not prevent an adult from seeking help when safety is uncertain.
My teenager will not talk to me
A practical way to reduce pressure, reopen connection and offer another trusted adult—without interrogation, threats or forced disclosure.
Teen Connection & Safety
A cautious conversation tool for silence, school stress, online harm, loneliness, relationships and AI. Its urgent-support routes currently cover the United States and United Kingdom.
Use the guide as a first step, not a verdict.
Carnet de Padres provides private educational guidance for adults. It does not diagnose, assess a person’s safety, provide therapy or replace qualified professional help. Each guide states its own scope, sources and review context. When a concern is persistent, worsening or affecting safety, health, school or daily functioning, seek appropriate human support.
