Co-operative And Positive Parenting

Most of us take parenting skills for granted – that we will somehow instinctively “know” what, when and how to do it. We are gifted with the sage advice of “elders” and (at times) conflicting words of wisdom from friends who claim to have “been there and done that.”

Parenting is challenging as both parents and their children are faced with more complex and difficult tasks to negotiate at home, work, and school. Just as the world we live in demands that we constantly upgrade our knowledge to deal with the ever changing technology to which we are exposed, parents are finding that they need new tools to cope with the explosion of choices that both they and their children face.

Co-operative and Positive Parenting are two such tools. Co-operative Parenting is a skill set that fosters a satisfying parenting experience between couples who are dealing with a degree of conflict. Many separated or divorced couples experience this. Positive Parenting is a skill set that promotes a parenting experience that utilizes the positive aspects of the child/parent interaction to instill a more harmonious home environment. Both of these skill sets can be obtained through individual or group counselling programs.
