Wednesday, May 1, 2013 – Discipline that Doesn’t Divide
SPEAKER: Colleen Drobot (Neufeld Institute)
According to developmental psychologist Dr. Gordon Neufeld, many of the prevailing discipline practices that parents use today prevent or erode healthy attachment with our children. Family therapist Colleen Drobot will outline several principles of discipline that promote attachment between the parent and child and that are developmentally appropriate. We can indeed help bring order to our children’s behaviour without damaging the relationship. Colleen will give practical suggestions and examples to show how to incorporate them into our daily lives with our children.
