Parenting the Love and Logic WayTM
We are excited to share an opportunity to take the Parenting the Love and Logic Way class! Parenting is such a challenging and important job and it is helpful to have tools to use when children surprise us, which they inevitably do and will continue to do. I clearly remember the first moment when my sweet, young child said, “no” when I made a simple request of her and my anxiety rising as I had no idea how to respond as a parent. If you have ever had a similar experience where you struggled with having a strategy or ideas of how to respond to your children’s behavior (regardless of your child’s age), this program is for you!
By attending this 6-week parenting program, you will learn practical skills that will help you feel more relaxed, hopeful and positive about your children. As you learn more, you'll discover that parenting really can be enjoyable…and that you can teach personal responsibility and respect without losing your children's love.
Parents will learn how to:
-
Avoid un-winnable power-struggles and arguments
-
Stay calm when their kids do incredibly upsetting things
-
Set enforceable limits
-
Avoid enabling and begin empowering
-
Help their kids learn from mistakes rather than repeating them
-
And much more!
