Description

Have you ever wanted to become a better parent, feel like you know what you're doing when you're parenting, or improve your quality of life? You can do all those things! 

This beginner-level course teaches you how to develop the necessary framework to your parenting. Instead of reactive parenting (which doesn't often find us at our best), you will be provided a way to become more thoughtful about your parenting. Information is presented to you, and then worksheets are provided to help solidify some of the lessons and make them personal to your family. The middle of the course is best taken one lecture at a time, with a few days in between; the entire course completed this way would be 3-4 weeks long.

The strength and happiness of the relationships you have with the people closest to you have a direct impact on your quality of life. You only get one chance to parent the kid you have today. You will never regret strengthening the relationship you have with your child. 

Who this course is for:

  • Any parent, guardian or caregiver who isn't satisfied with the status quo of their parenting.
  • Parents, guardians and caregivers who are currently struggling to manage a child's behavior.
  • This is designed for 'typical' behavior problems for children between the approximate ages of 2-12.
  • This course may not offer the depth needed to help children with a diagnosed psychiatric disorder.
