Parenting involves looking at the issue from the perspective of the parent and the perspective of the child. The parent’s type as well as the child’s type influence the best strategy for resolving critical life issues that face most children and families. We will look at parenting types and child types while exploring some of these life issues. As always, we will leave with strategies to use to help parents and children learn and grown together in healthy and supportive ways.
Specifically, we will focus on the following topics:
- September: Belonging – includes examining friendships and forming relationships
- October: Resilience – includes how to develop a more resilient Nature and the plus and minus for parent and child when a developmental crisis occurs in the family.
- November: Bullying – explores reactions when your child is bullied or when s/he is the one who bullies others, including the parent
- December: Empathy expressions and development by type preferences – includes how to recognise the expression of empathy by different types.
At the conclusion of the workshop participants will receive a list of 100+ hints for working with type differences in children.
