In this training, we will...

  • Reframe discipline as a definer of family values and a way of guiding children through different developmental stages rather than a harsh or controlling parental stance
  • Understand the key concept of disorientation vs. willful disobedience
  • Provide a sound developmental picture using the Simplicity Parenting 3 G’s Model and learn tools to guide parental discipline gestures
  • Simplicity Parenting 3 G’s Model:
    • Governor (younger child)- How to reestablish loving limits for younger children
    • Gardener (tween years)- How to listen and attune without losing authority
    • Guide (teen years)- How to work with a teen’s goals and direction by identifying distractions
  • Explore parents’ discipline biography; learning to pause and reflect as a way to cultivate a discipline voice that moves toward the future and integrates the blessings of the past
  • Cover Group Work Fundamentals
  • Learn an Assisted Gathering Model for leading parent groups, which can be adapted for parent education evenings and introductory workshops
