Parenting Matters.

What happens between parents and children matters. Through our parenting we shape the lives of our children and prepare them to become happy and successful adults and positive contributors to society. Therefore, learning the skills of effective parenting will be one of the most worthwhile ventures you ever pursue.

Yet, doing this work is not easy

Although rewarding, there is frankly little that is as hard as raising children. Family life is chaotic. Children come into the world helpless and are totally dependent on their parents for all their care. The process of growing physically and emotionally is a slow journey that takes many years. In the meantime, children make incredible emotional and physical demands on their parents. These demands require an abundance of understanding, patience, perseverance, dedication, even emotional maturity.

During the course I’m going to talk about many of the challenges that come at us almost daily. For example, what do you say or do when?

  • Your kids bicker and fight.

  • They are unmotivated and don’t want to help around the house.

  • A child consistently lies.

  • Your son or daughter brings home a really bad report card.

  • A daughter is devastated by the remarks of some friends and becomes very depressed.

  • Your son pitches a major fit when his screen time is over.

  • These are just a few of the myriad of challenges that we face as parents every day.

The mistakes we make as parents

Such challenges set us up to do one of two things: We over-manage our children by controlling, directing, lecturing, forcing, telling, nagging, criticizing, threatening. Or, we overindulge them (make life easy) by sympathizing, giving in, rescuing, fixing or doing for our them what they ought to do for themselves. Either way, our children fail to learn from their experiences or grow in emotional maturity and self-responsibility.

Who Am I?

Hi, my name is Roger Allen. I’m a psychologist, author, coach, consultant, teacher, and more importantly, a father and grandfather. I’ve studied parenting and family relationships for 30 plus years and have developed a set of basic principles and skills to help you create loving relationships with your children and empower them to become responsible, emotionally mature children and adults. The principles and skills I will teach you have been tested with thousands of people throughout the world.

My overall purpose, in this parenting course, is to teach you principles and skills to create a nurturing climate in your home. This is a home which blends the qualities of love and compassion with clear expectations and accountability. Most parents are good at one or the other—creating a loving, responsive environment but not so good at setting expectations. Or the other way around. They’re good at setting expectations but not good at compassion and love. I’m going to teach you to do both—hold high standards and yet create a safe and loving environment.

Here's what we’ll do

In the first part of the course, I’ll create a framework of successful parenting by helping you understand the basic principles or characteristics of a nurturing home. By understanding these principles you’ll become less reactive and become far more knowledgeable what to do and say to not only solve problems but help you children learn and grow.

Most of the course is about improving how you communicate and interact with your children. I’ll present a model (I call it the Key Moment Model) that will help you learn to communicate in ways that are positive and strengthening to your children rather than weakening and harmful to them and your relationships.

The remaining lessons are all about specific strategies and communication skills. You’ll learn how to:

Establish loving authority within your home.

  • Open up communication and build trust.

  • Build an atmosphere of harmony rather than criticism, bickering and putdowns.

  • Resolve disagreements and conflicts constructively and without power struggles.

  • Give up parenting habits that destroy self-esteem and weaken relationships.

  • Teach your children to assume responsibility for their feelings and actions.

  • Set limits and enforce discipline without being heavy handed.

Concrete skills

This course is not theory. I teach very concrete skills (what to do and say when such and such an event occurs in your home) and then demonstrate the skills with examples of communication between parents and their children.

The skills not only work but are immediately useful. By learning and practicing them you will improve the way you parent so you can enjoy your children and positively influence their development. I have been teaching these principles and skills for many years and I am pleased to make them more widely available in this course.

The purpose of this course is to help you learn principles and communication skills to create a happy and nurturing climate within your home.

This video provides a few suggestions how you can get the most from your investment in this course. A few tips about taking notes, completing the exercises, and referring to the supplied PDF reference guides are included.

Our primary goal, as we parent, is not just solving an immediate problem but rather the long-term maturation and development of our children.

Assess your current family climate and identify actions to create a nurturing climate.

Families vary on two dimensions: how responsive we are to our children and how demanding we are. These dimensions result in four styles of parenting: uninvolved, permissive, authoritarian, and nurturing.

I will help you understand the characteristics of a permissive climate and share examples of parenting young children and teens when we are permissive.

I describe the characteristics and give examples of an authoritarian family climate.

The Uninvolved Climate

I help you understand how nurturing parents communicate and interact with their children.

This is a downloadable/printable PDF of the Family Climate Summary Chart.

Explain why clarity of principles is so critical to successful parenting. Explain the relationship between principles, behavior, and outcomes. Describe the principles of a nurturing home.

You'll learn the nine principles of a nurturing home and the relationship between these principles and family outcomes.

This is a downloadable/printable PDF which contains more detailed information about the Nine Principles of a Nurturing Home.

You'll complete an exercise to make your day-to-day behavior correspond with the principles of a nurturing home.

This is a PDF worksheet for you to complete which contains the If-Then exercises.

Identify patterns of communication that are harmful to their children and learn helpful alternatives.

Key moments are upsetting situations or events when it's easy to get hooked and react to our children. As we learn to handle them well, we use them to help our children grow in responsibility and emotional maturity.

This is a reference guide which summarizes the Key Moment Model.

This is a reference guide containing detailed information about overmanaging and overindulging.

We respond very differently if our primary goal is maturation rather than solving problems, during key moments.

You will learn the three skill sets that form the foundation of all positive parent-child interactions.

A document summarizing the skills we use to stengthen our children during key moments.

The objectives of our communication are more than solving the immediate problem. It includes building trust, enhancing self-worth, and fostering maturation.

This quiz will check to see how well you are remembering the basic concepts of this course, for sections 1-4.

Understand and apply empathy skills to establish a foundation of excellent family relationships.

We use these skills to create an atmosphere of unconditional love, mutual respect and acceptance in which our children develop emotional literacy and the ability to deal with the challenges of their lives.

Respecting is more than a communication technique. It is recognizing and communicating the inherent goodness and capability of each family member.

Affirming is using non-verbals as well as verbal comments to express our love and reinforce desired behaviors in our children.

Listening is suspending judgment and being fully present with a child to understand her experience or point of view. Children mature as they feel validated through good listening responses.

Mirroring is matching a child's emotions, gestures, facial expressions, etc. to get into deep rapport and help them work through troubling emotions.

Supporting is asking questions about how we might be helpful rather than guessing or taking over.

This is a document you can refer to for a summary/overview of the empathy skills.

Employ honesty skills to give your children feedback, discuss sensitive topics, and come to win-win solutions.

As parents, we need to be honest with our children about our own feelings and perceptions. The purpose is to expand their awareness and also take care of our own needs.

Disclosing is being truthful about our own experience so our children are not in the dark and guessing (or not caring) about what's going on inside of us.

Care-fronting is giving feedback about behavior that is either outside our child's awareness, is harmful to others, or interferes with our needs as parents.

Reproving is a direct confrontation of a clearly inappropriate behavior.

A PDF reference guide to help your understand and apply the elements of the reproving skill.

Negotiating agreements enables us to work through conflicts to solutions we can all support. The skill also helps our children learn skills in dialogue and collaboration and take ownership of their commitments.

This is a document which contains details about the negotiating skill discussed in this section.

We use Harnessing Harmful Behavior with challenging or defiant children in order to help them stop manipulating and learn better strategies for dealing with their problems and negative emotions.

This is a document which provides detailed information about how to harness harmful behavior.

This document provides a summary of the Honesty skills discussed in this section of the course.

Learn how to cultivate a sense of personal responsibility within your children by creating structure, setting limits, enforcing consequences, encouraging autonomy, and asking valuing questions.

Creating structure is a way we bring discipline and accountability into the lives of our children.

Setting expectations and enforcing consequences teach children the cause effect relationship between their choices and consequences as well as necessity of respecting the inevitable boundaries (rules) of life.

We end up being wishy-washy and renegotiating everything if our expectations are not clear. We'll learn how to establish expectations that are both clear and understood by our children.

This document is a reference guide for enforcing consequences.

We help children grow as we encourage age-appropriate choices and allow them to "own" and solve their problems.

Questions, rather than lecturing, enable children to think deeply about their lives, identify what is important to them, options available to them, and actions to make good things happen.

This PDF document provides information about how to ask valuing questions.

This document provides a summary and review of the Responsibility Skills.

Develop a soft heart so you can respond to your children in ways that enable them to grow.

Good parenting is not as much about getting our children to be different as getting ourselves to be different. By changing ourselves, our own emotional reactions, our relationships change.

This document provides details about the process: Stop - Look - Listen - Choose.

This quiz will check to see how well you are remembering the basic concepts of this course, for sections 5-8.

Review and remember the principles and skills which you have learned during the course.

We bring it all together in this last lecture by reviewing the relationship between our principles, behaviors (communication skills) and outcomes of our parenting.
