Parental roles underwent a transformational perspective. The research supports relationship-centered parenting as a better way of parenting. Positive child outcomes arise from non-punitive, "evenhanded" and warm behaviors. Parents who practiced relationship-centered parenting were more positive toward relationships and their lives in general. Before completion of the program, the research subjects failed to understand their children's behavior. A parent who practices relationship-centered parenting feels empowered to actively and positively parent. Child protection workers should realize that removing children from abusive situations only temporarily alleviates the problem. The findings of this study suggest that parenting programs can result in the transformation of parenting behavior. The data showed that the belief child abusers cannot change is a misconception. If this research is corroborated by future research, the implication is that parent education programs should beexpanded. More is needed for severely under-funded intervention programs. This finding is provocative in that if it holds true, the implication for the reduction on child abuse is substantial.
