Discipline Without Shouting, Force Or Fluster

The word discipline is often associated with yelling, whacking and making kids feel bad. This workshop aims to replace that notion with the idea that discipline is something we do for our children because we love them, not something we do to our kids because we're angry. It presents effective, peaceful and relationship-enhancing techniques that help kids think, solve problems and make better decisions. The result is better discipline with less noise, anger and resentment.
