February’s Power of Positive Parenting

I have scoured the Glenn Latham Positive Parenting Book and not found any chapter specific to getting your children to listen and obey. SO! Here is my hare-brained plan. We will still have our discussion be about “Listening and Obeying,” but we will apply the principles wehave learned from Dr. Latham to our problem and see if we can solve it without his help! Let’s see if the past year’s worth of lessons have had an impact — can we solve our parenting problems without looking them up in his book? Can we take the knowledge we have gained and use it in our own dilemmas? Now is the test! If anyone wants to discuss this online here in advance of the February meeting, feel free to do so! Ask a question if you have one, or offer unsolicited advice if you have some! Have fun with this! I’ll post another reminder about the topic as we get closer to our meeting.

Happy Winter, all!
