Respect Agreements

Family Treatment Agreements are a simple yet powerful tool to encourage family conversations and set behavior expectations and roles for family members. Family Treatment Agreements are especially useful as families balance work and school in unprecedented times. In the classroom, similar agreements are utilized. Students and teachers discuss and agree as a group what appropriate treatment should look like, student to student, student to teacher, and teacher to student. In the home, children and parents/caregivers discuss and agree as a family what appropriate treatment should look like between child to parent, parent to child, and sibling to sibling or family to home.

HOW TO CREATE A FAMILY TREATMENT AGREEMENT
Start by collaborating and discussing with your family what your family values (kindness, compassion, respect, forgiveness, generosity, teamwork, resilience, etc.) are. You may have a good sense of what these values mean to your family members but it's important to ask your child for their thoughts and input. Be prepared for and encourage all kinds of answers as you record everyone's contributions. Focused questions will assist you in developing the Family Agreement into a powerful tool that empowers children and parents to develop a sense of ownership of their decisions and accountability to themselves and others.
