Parents frequently report that the principles learned in class help them work more successfully with other adults. Marriages sometimes improve, as do relationships at work. Most parents soon realize that without education they tend to rear their children they way their parents reared them. There is nothing wrong with that, but times change. Children are more complicated today.
Society presents relentless temptations.
Parent education adds to the skills parents already have. It is just common sense to take advantage of new ideas, whether the setting is a traditional family, single parent family, or step family. If you are interested in this free, seven-week program, call your school counselor to find out when the next class is offered. Seven weeks will pass quickly whether or not you take this course, so think how much better off you may be if you invest 90 minutes each week to add new ideas to working with your children. If you are interested in working with the Center to provide a free parenting class, talk with your staff.
