Positive Parenting 101
Parent-child connectedness is the Number One Key to keeping kids out of trouble. This encouraging and uplifting presentation can improve those most important relationships. It also teaches parents the basics of the leadership style proven to prevent problems of all kinds. Interactive exercises and humor make the time go quickly for participants, who leave inspired to get home and try new skills.
How to Develop Emotional Well-Being in Children
This presentation helps parents build self-esteem and emotional stability in their children. When children can identify and talk about their feelings, they more effectively handle themselves when upset or overwhelmed. Youngsters learn self-awareness, self-respect and self-esteem; they become more aware and respectful of themselves and others. The skills taught in this workshop benefit families throughout their lives.
No One Wants to Raise a Bully!
Many mainstream child-rearing practices are linked to the development of bullying. Without knowing it, many parents support bad behavior. Some parents don’t know how to exercise their authority in a way that creates good behavior. Others resist the idea of becoming autocratic parents. Yet without clear limits and positive communication, their children get away with rudeness and disrespect that create problems for themselves and others. In this workshop, parents learn to identify the problem child-rearing practices that are linked to the development of bullying, and gain new skills that build positive behavior.
This workshop is great for all ages:
Self-Esteem and Assertive Communication
Self-esteem—or the lack thereof—dictates how we manage our lives. Essential for mental health, self-esteem is the basis for self-confidence and assertive communication.

Trust is Fundamental. This video can help you deepen the trust in your family. It includes two enjoyable exercises that you can do along with the audience. (The third in the series of eight videos.)
Words are Powerful. The language parents use has the power to either build self-esteem or to damage it. This video can help you hold others accountable with feedback, rather than with criticism. (The seventh in a series of eight videos.)
