"How the co-parenting program works:
Facilitated by a parent educator, the 8-week program is part video and part group discussion. Each session is designed to last 2 hours.
This newly revised program includes all of the key concepts of the original classic, such as:
-
Educating parents on the impact their conflict has on their children
-
Educating parents on how to replace destructive reactions with constructive responses
-
Teaching parents the practical skills they need to manage anger, increase impulse control, resolve conflict and talk to each other without arguing
Plus new topics:
-
How to set up a two home communication system
-
Challenging parents to confront negative patterns
-
Taking more responsibility
-
Handling finances
-
Dealing with typical issues such as returning clothing
-
Handling transfers
-
The impact of a significant other
With all new videos embedded in an engaging PowerPoint presentation on Flash Drive or Streaming. All the materials are organized in a way that makes it easy to teach—and to learn!
The powerful and practical Parent’s Guide provides vital information and gives real-life examples and worksheets so parents can practice their new skills in the comfort of their own home. It serves as a useful reminder of effective strategies long after the course is over—a must have for all course participants!"
