Love and Logic is a philosophy of raising and teaching children that allows adults to be happier, empowered, and more skilled in their interactions with children. Love allows children to grow from their mistakes; logic allows children to live with the consequences of their choices. Love and Logic puts the parents back in control, teaches children to be responsible, and prepares young people to live in the real world. Class participants will learn specific “how-to’s” of successful parenting that are simple, practical and easy to use right away.
Presenters: Bill and Cindy Verschay *Independent Love and Logic Facilitators*
A complimentary meal and workbooks will be provided. Complementary child care services available for Oconto Falls School District Families during training for children ages 2 thru 12.
