•To be eligible for inclusion participants must be able to read and understand written English and living in Australia at the time of trial. They will need access to email and internet, preferably with a Broadband connection. Participants must also have a child with behaviour difficulties in the mild to moderate range aged between 3 and 9 years.
•Behaviour difficulties in the mild\-moderate range are defined as everyday behaviour problems that impact family wellbeing to the extent that reducing the behaviour difficulty would positively impact family, and individual, wellbeing. Examples of everyday behaviour difficulties include tantrums and not responding to requests/instructions. Parents who report that the mis\-behaviour is very severe and/or report high levels of associated stress, are advised to select a different (easier) behaviour to work on with the Behaviour Skill Builder and seek professional help with the severe mis\-behaviour.

•If the child with difficult behaviour is not within the age range (3 to 9 years) or if the child is currently receiving services for the target behaviour they will not be eligible to participate in the study. If the parent does not read and understand English they will also be excluded from the current study.
