When your child misbehaves, figuring out how to respond can be a daunting process. In this keynote, you will learn how to connect with your children and help them manage their emotions. When you parent with healthy limits, empathy and clear communication, you can help your child develop self-discipline and increase cooperation.
Dr. Laura Markham is the author of Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids: How to Stop Yelling and Start Connecting, Peaceful Parent, Happy Siblings: How to Stop the Fighting and Raise Friends for Life, and her latest book, The Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids Workbook: Using mindfulness and connection to raise resilient, joyful children and rediscover your love of parenting.
