Parenting Course (Based on P.E.T.)

By: Dr Thomas Gordon – Nobel Peace Prize Nominee

This internationally acclaimed Course is designed for parents and care-givers of young children and teenagers and offers proven skills to help raise children with high-self-esteem, who are responsible, considerate and learn to solve their own problems.

During this 15 hour life-changing course; (one night a week for 6 weeks) you will learn communications skills that promote attitudes and behaviours for building positive relationships.  By applying your new skills you will feel more confident in your day to day parenting, reducing arguments and nagging.

I work to create a safe and accepting environment in which you may feel supported by other parents, as parents choose to share their own experiences.

 

What you will learn in this course:

• How to talk so your children will listen - a skilled way to express your own needs
• How to listen so your children will talk about their problems with you and realise their full potential
• Enabling your children to take responsibility for their own problems
• How to resolve family conflict, that promotes respect and a win-win approach
• Skills to reduce sibling rivalry

Uncovering what lies beneath your children’s behaviours to develop co-operation and life-long positive relationships.

 

The benefits you will gain from the course:

• Helps you to raise children with high self-esteem, self-motivation and considerateness
• Increase enjoyment and feel more confident in your parenting
• You will be able to manage conflict easier and more successfully
• Achieve mutual respect without being submissive
• Happier families as both parent and child’s needs are emphasized and parents decide what they teach their children with their own value system
• A workbook that you keep to revise at any time in the future

 

Parents report after doing the course:

• Their children, are more co-operative, and less argumentative.
• Their children more likely to solve their own problems
• Often improve their school performance
• Children become more independent
• Children more willing to listen to parent's ideas
