Parenting with Love & Logic, Class 1 of 4, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Developed by Foster Cline and Jim Faye is a win-win approach to teaching children to be responsible.  Kids win because they learn how to solve their own problems and gain the confidence to meet life's challenges.  Adults win because they learn how to establish healthy controls without resorting to power struggles.  Parent's comments: "This course was an eye-opener for me... it will relieve a lot of stress for us as parents."  "The best training I have received... wish I had the information when my birth children were young."  And finally, "this should be required for all foster and adoptive parents - no it should be required for ALL PARENTS!
