“How To Talk So Kids Will Listen, & Listen So Kids Will Talk” Parenting Workshops–FULL

This program, developed by the authors of the book by the same name, uses lessons, role-play, and practice to help parents develop more effective skills for communicating with their children. In this workshop, participants will learn how to:

• Engage your child’s willing cooperation
• Deal with your child’s negative feelings–frustration, disappointment, anger
• Express your anger without being hurtful
• Set firm limits and still maintain goodwill
• Use alternatives to punishment that promote self-discipline
• Encourage positive relationships between your children
• Resolve family conflicts peacefully

The workshops are free and limited to Wilton parents. Space is limited and registration will be accepted as received.
