A Friend Indeed

Jack and Jill were told to run up the hill
and fetch a pail of water.
They deliberately disobeyed,
And there was hell to be paid.
(And that’s really how Jack broke his crown.)

Do you have deliberate disobeyers in your house? Feeling a little close to the end of your rope? 

Before it gets too bad, Parental Guidance is a solution that can help.
 
Think a kinder, gentler version of Nanny 911 or a refresher course of Parenting 101. Sometimes life gets hectic, (bad) habits develop and someone has to remind us how to regain control of our household again.

The aim of Parental Guidance is to help parents feel that they are not alone in their parenting challenges, and to become confident in their parenting style by assisting them with such common issues as bedtime battles, temper tantrums, homework struggles and differing parenting styles.

How does it work? Trained parent coaches come to your home, watch the dynamics and provide personalized parenting tips specific to the needs of your family.

Depending on the package you choose (ranging from $75 – 350) you will receive a recommendation of systems and/or structures to follow for the entire family.

A helpful strategy we learned from our consultation: all family members write down a list of rules to follow with direct consequences listed next to them. When a rule is broken, the consequence is followed through in the same way and consistently by each parent and/or caregiver. No arguments. The writing is literally on the wall. 

We know this parenting job is serious, and we all need a little help sometimes. So, if you are in need, call Parental Guidance. They are a friend indeed.
