more about Parent talk ~

 Parent Talk is very practical! You will be taught specific language skills that, when practiced and applied regularly in your home, will have a calming and empowering effect on the whole family!   Your new Parent Talk skills will immediately increase your sense of confidence and effectiveness as a parent. 


 Parent Talk is all about the words - The parent 'talk' that parents use! There is an undeniable link between the words parents speak and the attitudes and outcomes that children create in their lives. Your choice of words and your communication style are critical to the self-esteem, emotional health, and personal empowerment of your children.


Throughout your experience with Parent Talk classes the focus is on YOU and helping you be and become the parent you want to be. It's not about being 'the perfect parent’ - there is no such thing! It is about having a clearer, more conscious awareness of what you want for your children and your family and about having the skills to reach your goals. It is about helping parents implement strategies that instill the values, beliefs and the behaviors you want in your family.    


 Those who embrace and utilize Parent Talk skills consistently report that they are more calm and confident in their parenting. Children respond in kind with greater cooperation, family unity and growing sense of responsibility and increased  social skills.


 Over the course of the 6 week class (2 hours each week) parents follow along in their workbooks as they learn and practice more than 20 Parent Talk skills that will empower them to reach their goal of raising to adulthood, children who are responsible, caring and confident.
