Parenting Program: When Your Kids Push Your Buttons

If you are a parent, you know what it feels like when your kids push your buttons.  We often react in ways we thought we never world, we dislike, that are ineffective, and make us feel like terrible parents. When our buttons are pushed, we react automatically with anger and lose our authority.  Nothing effective can be taught or learned in these moments.  The Buttons workshop will help you understand what pushes your buttons and why they are pushed.  It will give you tools to defuse them so you can finally end the action-reaction cycle between you and your child. This workshop is a companion to the book When Your Kids Push Your Buttons, by Bonnie Harris.  Appropriate for parents, teachers, and caregivers.  Online registration is required.  To register, click here.
