Parenting Workshop
Conflicting opinions may leave you feeling confused. “Get tough!” “Show acceptance.” “Lay down the rules.” “Lighten up,” already! There got to be a balance — and there is.
Joining their expertise with the wisdom of MOPS International (Mothers of Preschoolers), Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend help you provide both the care and acceptance that make grace real to your kids, and the firmness and discipline that give direction. At last, here is an effective middle ground for raising your children to handle life with maturity and wisdom.
Some Topics to be Covered:
- Raising children of character
- Ingredients for growth: grace, truth, and time
- Developing connectedness
- Developing responsibility
- Developing reality and competence
- Developing morality and spirituality
- When in doubt, connect!
- Healthy eating habits and nutrition
