About The Class
The Positive Discipline program was developed to help parents discuss different parenting situations and find help through the many topics covered in class. Topics covered in the program include sibling rivalry, not finishing homework or chores, preventing power struggles, overcoming child’s bad habits, helping children develop positive life skills in the long term, discipline application guidance, anger issues, and increasing a child’s independence among others.
