TODDLER TROUBLE? PRESCHOOL PROBLEMS?

Has your toddler or preschooler suddenly begun to act oppositional? Do you feel that you are at your wits end in how to deal with power struggles and temper tantrums? While it can seems to be impossible to change a toddler’s behavior, it is possible to change your reactions to these behaviors. This can lead to better behavior and a happier household!  While children do not come with an “instruction manual” there are simple techniques that you can utilize. Even the best parents can use new perspective in how to react to the toddler and preschool years.  We will learn the differences between discipline and punishment as well as the difference between praise and encouragement.

You  may be surprised to find out that you are not alone in struggling with the frustrations of toddlerhood. Being in a parenting group can normalize the feelings you may have. While the Orlando parenting group is facilitated by a counselor, many of the ideas we brainstorm come from fellow group members!

This a fun; interactive course for PARENTS ONLY led by Jessica Stage, MSW, Registered Clinical Social Work Intern, and co-parent to a two year old child. I am also learning every day what a challenge it can be to maintain discipline while having fun with your toddler. Let us work together to become positive role models for our children!

We will be using a book, Systematic Training for Effective Parenting of Young Children as our guide in the class.
