Effective discipline is a challenge for every parent. Parenting is in effect being in a relationship, and we all know that relationships require constant work. One of the reasons that parenting is a challenge is because each one of us has an inborn set of qualities that can be described as temperament. Each of us also possesses our own intellectual and physical capabilities. Yet, how these qualities and capabilities are developed depends almost wholly on how we are treated.

These workshops are designed to help parents build skills to understand and communicate with their children. You will have homework assignments due each week. You will do in class worksheets that are designed to help you with your homework assignments. The homework assignments are designed to give you practice learning the parenting skills that we discuss in class. 

There is no such thing as a perfect parent. Parenting will be the hardest job you’ll ever do and the most important job you’ll ever do. When living and relating to our children, we want to be able to love our children as well as discipline them. We also want them to love themselves. The goals of discipline and the goals of love are one and the same.

The ability of a child to care about getting enough sleep, to be cooperative and to be honest comes from the way they are cared for. For example: Children learn how to care about themselves through the experiences that they receive from their caregivers. And only a person who cares about himself can care about other people.
