Hello, My Husband and I are looking to take some parenting classes. We want to learn more about how to handle a toddler that has temper tantrums when we are out in public, general discipline,getting them to try new foods and how we as parents should deal with these situations for a more positive and peaceful outcome for all. involved.
Thank you all for this great and helpful information. I have contacted all of the places that each of you mentioned and hopefully we will be on our way to positive and creative discipline solutions for our kids. Thank again for all your input, advice and help.
Try Positive Parenting Solutions. http://www.positiveparentingsolutions.com/
I took the class a couple months ago. It was great! It will address all the issues you mentioned.
I notice someone already mentioned Positive Parenting Solutions and provided you the web link. I have also recently taken this class and wanted to add my endorsment. I have read many books and tried different things, but this class really helps you understand WHY things are happening and give some very practical tools to help with targeted behaviors as well as building a better relationship with your children. I have seen great results. I can't recommend it strongly enough, and wish I'd taken it sooner!
If you reside in Durham and pay durham taxes I would recommend Welcome Baby. They are on the web and they have fantastic programs.

PS wow that program is looks great
