We are so happy to tell you that we have partnered with Amy McCready’s company Positive Parenting Solutions to bring a free webinar to you guys on the topic of getting kids to listen – without nagging or yelling. The format includes Amy presenting material and a live chat session where we can all ask questions in real time.
We have taken similar online parenting classes with Amy in the past and both really enjoyed it. Each time, I feel empowered with new ideas for positive discipline solutions (and a commitment to stop yelling completely. Ahem.).
This valuable class will take place anytime you pick.
Parents of kids ages 2½ – 16 will learn:
- why kids really misbehave — it’s probably not what you think!
- how your personality may actually fuel misbehavior
- the 5 R’s of Fair & Effective Consequences so kids listen the first time you ask
- training resources to reduce your parenting stress & stop nagging, reminding & yelling
Here’s how the webinar works:
- Sign up here to choose a class that fits your schedule.
- Sit in front of your computer to watch and listen to the presentation.
- Come as you are; no one will see you.
- Type questions whenever you have them and Amy will respond when possible.
Whitney and I will be in on the class as well, asking questions alongside you.

+++ Taking the class is free to you; Amy offers deeper courses for a fee if you’re interested. We have an affiliate relationship with Positive Parenting Solutions.
As the father of an intellectually disabled child with self-regulation issues that lead to behavioral challenges, I can say that a course like this one was extremely beneficial. I encourage all parents to take one.
Is there any way to watch it after the fact? Trying to watch with my 7mo old and 4yo will surely end in yelling 😉 It’s awesome that it’s live with q&a, but I’m sure it would still be really helpful to watch/hear a recording.
I think if you RSVP yes, you can see the video and transcript after the fact.
If you had to miss our webinar this week, there are some other dates/times this coming week to choose from. Maybe one will work better. http://www.positiveparentingsolutions.com/amember/aff/go/rookiemoms
There are lots of upcoming dates/times to choose from.
Ask the question that provides the ‘illusion’ of choice.
Here’s one example of that.
‘Would you rather put on the pink or purple dress today?’
My objective is to get her dressed, so no matter what choice she makes, we both win. She gets to feel in control and having contributed to decision making and I get to avoid a dressing meltdown.
