For the Love of Kids 2009 Parenting Seminar featuring Dr. Jane Bluestein.

You Can’t Make Me! Practical discipline strategies to build responsibility, cooperation and mutual respect

Few things are as aggravating or exhausting as power struggles with kids. Rather than focusing on how to react to oppositional, obnoxious, passive-aggressive or disrespectful behaviors, we'll concentrate on how to prevent these behaviors from occurring in the first place. Learn how to generate cooperation without threats, warnings, or punishments. We'll explore practical, effective strategies for reducing stress and conflict in the relationship -- including setting and maintaining boundaries, follow through to build accountability, increasing positivity, building trust and mutual respect, and accommodating kids' needs for power within limits that won't make you crazy -- strategies that will work with children of all ages (and even other adults). If you find yourself nagging, arguing or threatening, being ignored by your kids or having your authority challenged, then this seminar is for you!
