We all want our children to have good academic results, social skills, integrity, resilience, and be able to weather the storms and challenges of life’s adversities.  These are essential attributes of emotionally mature children.

Emotionally mature children can only be reared by emotionally mature parents

This class takes a unique approach to parenting.  Instead of going after children to eradicate their problems in an endless and piecemeal way, this program focuses on helping parents to be effective leaders of their families.

Goals include

  • helping parents stay grounded and mature, so that their children can also develop into responsible, self-directed and thoughtful individuals.
  • helping parents manage their anxiety so that they can relate with their children in calm, thoughtful ways, and not let emotion overpower them.
  • helping parents set appropriate limits with their children, so that their children can learn self-discipline and respect for others.

You will learn how to:

  • minimize the occurrence of problems in children by managing yourself
  • respond to your children when they refuse to do what you ask
  • control yourself instead of controlling them
  • avoid power struggles
  • inspire your children

This class will give you a road map of the potential parenting pitfalls and how to steer clear of them.  It will also help you facilitate your own growing up – which is essential for your children to thrive.
