Parenting Series Continues
Join us February 5 - March 4 for a parenting series led by child development experts. This series is geared towards parents, grandparents, and anyone with an interest in child rearing. You can come to one or all of the classes that meet Sundays from 9:30 - 10:30 a.m. For more information about this series, visit the parenting series page. This Sunday's topic is Parenting the Strong-Willed Child
Led by Licensed Psychological Associate and Mesquite ISD Behavior Specialist Kelly Smith
Parenting a strong willed child can often leave parents feeling depleted and overwhelmed. The child/teen's strong reactions and explosive behavior can cause parents and schools to accommodate them (instead of helping them learn useful coping skills). Many parents end up overreacting or walking on eggshells, but over time these approaches backfire. In this session, parents will learn to take a practical, proactive and highly relational approach to parenting the strong willed child.
New Short-Term Class Kicks Off The Art of Lent
