Parent Education

A Movement to Jail Spanking Parents? Really?

What would you say if you met a parent who said to you, “It is my right to do whatever I want with my child.”  Would you feel torn between respecting that parent’s right or feel compelled to act on the part of the innocent child?  I’d like to hear from my readers on what your thoughts are.  Recently on a social media discussion board, I was accused of being a part of a diabolical movement to take away the rights of parents who choose to use punitive and possibly harmful discipline with their children.

What to do When Your Child Craves Attention

 
 
Does it happen to you?  Your child seems to constantly crave attention and just when you're the busiest?  It can be very frustrating because you feel like you give your child lots of attention and she just continues to want more.  Keep in mind that anything that takes your attention away, such phone calls, work, the television, and even other people can make your child feel like she has competition for you.

I teach parents how to help shape their child's world by helping to raise an emotionally balanced and peaceful child, and one that pays less attention to what's going on in the outer world.  It is not healthy for us to raise our children caring about what's happening on American Idol or Jersey Shore.  We must do this by helping our children develop a greater awareness of their connection with their inner self and their intuition.  The constant barrage of reality and talent 

Lauching a Research Project

School systems are in desperate need for an updated parent education system.  Many still use the outdated S.T.E.P. program and teachers and hoping something will be introduced to help parents create more boundaries and limits at home.  If parents are engaged and using effective discipline at home, then children will become easier to teach in the classroom where boundaries and limits are normally in place.

With this in mind, I am launching a research project through my local university to create the evidence that many schools systems require to bring in a parent education program to the parents.
