PARENTING WITH BACKBONE AND HEART
A Parenting Workshop with Roger Taylor
For Parents of toddlers, children, teenagers, and young adults
Parenting is wonderful, and it’s hard.
We choose between being a boss and a friend.
We often choose what’s more comfortable for us.
“We’re permissive until we can’t stand our children and authoritarian until we can’t stand ourselves.”
-- Carl Whitaker
THIS PARENTING APPROACH GIVES YOU STRATEGIES AND TOOLS FOR:
• Saying yes when we mean yes and no when we mean no
• Not letting your children define the rules or the quality of connection with them
• Staying true to your parenting values and welcoming your children’s reactions
• Insisting without losing your child’s respect and connection
• Understanding your children without caving in
• Staying centered when your kids are frustrating, disappointing, and scaring you
• Helping your children increase their communication, confidence, and resilience
