Great service!

I love the updated look. My most recent class had 8 participants who were court ordered by Children's Division and I love when they see what they can do differently to raise responsible, independent, and accountable kids.

Parents are very responsive, easy to train staff and implement the program, lots of great resources.

This material has been helpful in my parenting class!

Parents are very interested in the content and excited about sharing the things that they have tried. It is well designed to meet the ability levels of all parents. :)

I am volunteering at a local domestic violence shelter and am facilitating the program for it's own reward. I wasn't sure how well the program and even myself would be received as I know they are already dealing with so much. It was amazing! The ladies were all very receptive and the director of the shelter told me she has seen them using the strategies in the house. I thought the ladies would just share the books, but they all wanted their own to keep which is why I needed to order more!

This information is incredibly useful and easily applicable. Looking forward to teaching the course.

Easy to work with! No issues at all!

Facilitating Love and Logic classes is a blessing - the workbook provides valuable information and reminders.

I love teaching Love and Logic! Parents are excited to learn new techniques and share their successes!

I taught a class that was full of parents whose school uses the classroom love and logic. Therefore this was a fun time of facilitating parents through the Love and Logic workbook, videos, and discussions as they partner with consistency in their school.

These workbooks are the perfect accompaniment to the course: Parenting the Love and Logic Way. I've had many parents comment on how they refer back to it years later to brush up on the principles we learned from class.

This learning resource helps my Foster Grandparents in the classrooms, as they cannot discipline, but with your techniques, they can redirect and give them choices.

My client's really enjoy this class

We are starting soon with our first parent group!! We have been practicing and planning these past few weeks.

Love L & L

It's working well so far. We have 15-16 family units attending.

I have had great feedback on the course.

Starting our 4th group! It’s been awesome!

I haven't got to start teaching the class, but I love the material. Such good information and it will be very easy to understand for my clients.

In 2008 I was researching classroom management techniques and I came across a reference to a book called Teaching with Love and Logic: Taking Control of the Classroom. I ordered the book and it sat on my “to read” desk for several months. On the day I finally cracked open the book, less than two pages in, I knew I had struck gold. The authors were educators like myself and they spoke my language. I immediately purchased Parenting with Love and Logic and a bunch of other titles and CDs. These books and CDs lead to the strongest Aha moments of my life. I raised my kids in the 80s and 90s. Probably a hybrid parent, I attended numerous parenting classes in my quest to be the perfect Mom. At the time, I learned much about active listening, I messages, and who owns the problem. I embraced these concepts and read much on those topics, yet none of these gave me a single strategy of what to do, when, and how. So, I mostly resorted to the habitual rant, rave, rescue, repeat dysfunction. Somehow, I knew there had to be more but it alluded me for all those years. Every now and again, I would meet confident parents and I saw a major difference between their kids and mine but I never did find out why. I knew active listening was a good start and that parenting in a way that doesn’t harm the relationship is crucial but I never knew what to do past being empathetic. Sadly, L and L was already in existence and had I known about it, I would have raised my kids differently. However, years later when I read that first book I knew I finally found the missing links that alluded me. Best of all, I noticed the values were aligned with mine. So, armed with my new knowledge of simple effective strategies (as a consulting parent in training) of empathy, providing choices, natural, and delayed consequences to name a few, I began implementing them with my grand kids, my struggling learners, and with my grad students as well. In fact, the strategies came in handy in all my relationships with children and adults. Several years ago, I became a facilitator for the Parenting the Love and Logic Way Curriculum. The curriculum offers a powerful combination of storytelling and humor to impart simple, logical, and effective techniques. Best of all there are no lengthy steps or details to remember. So, each week I watch as parents relax and laugh for 2 hours as they are entertained by entertainer/parenting experts, barely realizing that they are learning. Each session, in a light fun atmosphere, new ideas are explored and practiced. Apprehensive at the start of session one, these same parents leave confident with their new skills to a clear path of happy healthy parenting at the end of session 6. Each session builds on the previous one by reviewing, adding one new idea, and previewing what’s up next, in a way that’s just like the Goldilocks principal- not too much, not too little, but just about right amount for participants to digest and attempt during the next week. Each session builds on the previous one by reviewing, adding one new idea, and previewing what’s up next, in a way that’s just like the Goldilocks principal- not too much, not too little, but just about right amount for participants to digest and attempt during the next week. L and L fits all value systems easily. In L and L, we learn that we can’t change people (nor should we) least of all our kids- and we can’t force them to do what is right. Lectures and moralizing are ineffective. But there are indeed powerful changes to those around us when we work on changing ourselves. Jim’s final monologue of Randy’s story is a poignant and powerful end to the course with few dry eyes in the audience including myself. And finally, the moment of truth for me, has always been watching the genuine surprise the participants experience when they compare the pre-questionnaires responses to their post questionnaires. In a few short sessions, the initial negative responses have shifted to significantly more positive ones. Indeed, we are all on road to becoming consulting parents. Thank you for changing my life and the lives of parents in my community. Please consider offering workshops in the Greater New York Area in the future.

I am an elementary school guidance counselor and I have been a Love and Logic facilitator for a few years. I was introduced to Love and Logic about 10 years ago and have been raising my children using the Love and Logic methods. While facilitating one of my classes a few years ago, a parent (who knew my children) said that I have really good children and that is why these strategies work, but they were skeptical about the strategies working on more difficult children. I also thought, "well, maybe I did just win the children lottery and got lucky". Of course, every parent thinks their kids are the best and I am no exception! Here is where it gets interesting: Two years ago as a counselor we had a difficult first grader in my school. This kid would throw chairs across the room, beat up on other kids, lay down on the floor and pout whenever anybody tried to talk or even play games with him. He had zero social skills and he was in foster care. He was suspended more than he was at school. He had been in 7 different foster homes in two years and the group home he was in had just about enough of him. Each foster home had kicked him out due to his extreme behavior. (I guess at home he would get up during the night and break things in the house along with the other violence). His social worker told me he was going to be sent to a hospital long term for his extreme behaviors. I believed this boy could be better. My husband and I became foster certified and we took him in. I am a guidance counselor, my husband is a teacher, and we are both Love and Logic parents. When this boy first came to us, he tried all the techniques he had tried in his previous homes. However, he learned really quickly how this didn't work for him. We were extremely consistent on natural and logical consequences (in fact we actually had fun thinking of logical consequences). We became HUGE users of enforceable statements and allowing him to make as many small choices as he could. About 6 months after being with us, his social worker could not believe he was the same child! She called him "normal", which was amazing considering she first told us he was 'unadoptable'. He follows almost all instructions at home and is a happy boy. He finally smiles and laughs (and even sings to himself) which he NEVER smiled during the entire first grade. ALL THANKS TO THE STRATEGIES OF LOVE AND LOGIC! When I facilitated my Love and Logic class in the Spring, I had the best parent turn out ever. Many parents who knew this little boy said, "If Love and Logic can make that big of a change for that little boy's behavior, it can definitely make a change in my child!" This little boy has been with us for one year now and we are planning on him staying with us indefinitely. But I wanted you to know how thankful I am for the Love and Logic program. When we first got him, people said, "All he needs is love". I have no doubt he received LOVE at his prior 7 foster homes, but what he really needed was Love and Logic. I was told by some foster care trainers that there is a high turnover in foster parents. I told them I believe foster parents often just don't know what to do. If I ran the world, all foster parents would receive Love and Logic training as a part of their initial foster parent training. This may have been the longest testimonial, but I want you to know that even after all these years Love and Logic is still making a difference in my home and community. Thank you!
