What’s Stopping You from Being the Parent You Want to Be?

Raising your child could be easier and more fun if only you knew how to develop a trusting, mutually empowering relationship with your child!

Being an effective parent means a lot to you. Your child is very precious and you want to do what is best for him to be self-reliant, happy, self-confident and fulfilled in life. You want a loving, harmonious relationship with her both now and in the future. Your relationship with your child is one of the most important you’ll have your entire lifetime.

• Parenting can still be pretty challenging sometimes.
• Your child doesn’t seem cooperative or motivated to do what he needs to do.
• She has tantrums and emotional meltdowns that leave you feeling powerless and ineffective.
• He doesn’t seem to understand what you’re telling him.
• Rewards and punishment seems to be the only way to get her to listen to what you’re saying.
• Your child doesn’t act the way you’d like or would expect.
• He seems off in his own world and you often feel powerless to make an impact in his behavior.

The old ways of doing things don’t seem to be working as you’d like. You’ve tried lots of techniques and strategies, ideas from experts and friends, but still nothing seems to make any lasting significant improvement in your child’s difficult behavior or her personal limitations and weaknesses. As much as you try, your challenges with your child remain pretty much the same, if not worsening.

Parenting can feel hard frustrating and hard. You put so much attention and care into being a good parent, but you feel unappreciated and disrespected. You become impatient and angry and say and do things you later regret. Worse still, you don’t know what to do about it, especially when you see your child acting like you when she interacts with others.

Or perhaps you’re a parent who feels things are going pretty well, if only you could resolve a few persistent, frustrating situations and interactions with your child. These few challenges seem to overlap into other areas and to affect your feelings of love and joy with one another in many situations.

Today’s Children Need New Ways of Parenting

Parenting today is different than it’s ever been before. The demands and needs are escalating. The pressure to do things right as a parent has never been greater and the fear and risk of doing the wrong thing has never been more urgent.

In many families today, either both parents work, or children are raised by a single parent or in a blended family. These result in parents feeling more overwhelmed with all they need to do in a day and struggling to make the few hours they have with their child quality time.

Children today are different than they were in previous times. They are more sensitive and expressive emotionally. Children today are different than they were in previous times. They are more sensitive and expressive emotionally. They struggle with insecurity or are demanding and inconsiderate of others. They struggle to focus and be attentive in school. More and more children are diagnosed and medicated for social-emotional disorders.

Schools exert more pressure on family time as the amount of homework increases and parents feel compelled to ensure their child’s success academically. Much of what used to be play time for children and families is now used for homework and after-school classes and sports.

Even though there is a tremendous amount of information available to parents today, much of it is based on principles used in the past. You may even catch yourself sounding just like your mother or father, even though you promised yourself you would never do that.

Plus one-size-fits-all approaches to parenting simply do not work. Each child and each parent are unique individuals with unique challenges and unique solutions, which only you can find.

Bottomline, the old strategies, principles and beliefs from a previous time are simply not adequate for the uniqueness of today’s children and the stresses of modern times. Children simply will not respond in the ways you expect or as you did as a child. What they yearn for is authentic connection with you that recognizes their intrinsic capabilities and emotional needs. Children need to feel trusted in order to trust themselves.

Until now, no one has offered to guide you through a process of discovery to create this authentic, trusting connection with your child, based on your individual uniqueness. To guide you to discover your own unique answers that work for you and your child. To help you create the special relationship that only you can create with your child.

When you learn to listen more deeply to yourself and to the emotional needs and feelings of your child, then your behavior and your communication with your child change. You feel a special tenderness, closeness, and admiration for your child that draws her closer to you and inspires her to find new ways to respond to you and to life.

Parenting becomes easier and more fun as you work with your child to have more harmony and connection with one another. You grow in your confidence to be able to handle difficult situations calmly and with respect for yourself and your child. You see more clearly how to nurture your child’s emotional and spiritual wholeness.

Discover the Essentials You Need to Create a Joyous Connection with Your Child

In this program, you’ll discover key principles to nurture your child’s Emotional Wholeness and to have a more trusting relationship with your child. You’ll learn all of the following and more:

• Why your child’s Emotional Wholeness is so vital to his joy and success
  in life
• Why who you are is more important than what you do or say
• Why shifting your perception is one of your most important skills as a parent

Plus you’ll learn specific communication skills and principles to listen more clearly and speak more impactfully with your child. You’ll be able to communicate so that it is easier for your child to listen and respond more cooperatively confidently.

And, you’ll explore:

• How working with your child’s behavior actually limits your effectiveness as a parent
• How to use the power of changing your behavior to get more of the behavior you want from your child
• How to be more patient with your child and calmer in your responses
• How being more authentic nurtures your child and your relationship

On its own, this class will dramatically change the way you think about your role as a parent and what your child most needs from you. It will give you new models for thinking through how to respond when challenges occur with your child, and it will get you started to communicate more effectively and powerfully.

Your Child’s Emotional Wholeness is Too Important to be Left to Chance!

Here’s what participants in the Getting Started with Joyous Parenting™ Home Study Program say…

Relax and Enjoy Your Child More

Before taking Connie’s “Getting Started with Joyous Parenting Class”, my six-year-old son Paul and I were often fighting. I often felt trapped in a parent/child relationship that was unfulfilling for me and not meeting my son’s needs. It’s been a struggle for me since he was a toddler.

This class was highly recommended by a friend. Plus, the teleconference made it easy for me to fit into my schedule.

In the class, I learned to enjoy my child for who he is, however challenging that may be, and be happy and proud he’s unique. I also realized how much I need to take better care of myself, specifically developing a social life and personally fulfilling activities that are separate from my time with my son.

We have a ways to go, but things are definitely better since taking the class. I’m happy and more relaxed when I’m with Paul because I know I am taking care of my needs separately. I don’t have to feel isolated and lonely because Paul is difficult.

I’ve stuck to the new routine I developed with Connie in my private coaching session regarding shopping with Paul. I’ve been able to run errands with him without feeling like I’m always running after him. Shopping, while not completely relaxing, is much more enjoyable.

The class also validated a lot of my concerns and made me feel less alone in trying to make things better in my relationship with my son.

The Getting Started with Joyous Parenting Class is a wonderfully insightful and supportive class that will help you nurture the loving relationship you wish to have with your child. – Lura Taylor, Carlisle, Massachusetts

Understand Your Child More Clearly

Before taking the Getting Started with Joyous Parenting Class, my older son was not listening and not treating his brother kindly like he should. The challenging thing for me was to try to decide which dicipline would work. There are so many ideas out there, and I started to get confused.

I am patient with my kids but sometimes they drive me to the edge and I want to handle it correctly without damaging them. I want to teach them with love but show them there are consequences for their behavior if they choose a wrong way of doing things.

I decided to take Connie’s class because I was at a lecture of hers at my son’s preschool, and I liked what she said.

I learned many things from this class. One being that you really need to listen to your child. Also as a parent, we need to word things differently if we want our children to listen to us. I also learned that as a parent that you need time for yourself as well and to care for yourself.

Since the class, my son is treating his brother totally differently. Yes, they have their moments but it is so-o-o much better. My son has always felt loved. I have never sensed that he felt he was not loved. We have a better understanding of each other now.

I also really LOVED the discounted hour coaching call we had that was included in the class where I was more specific with my issues.

I have read other books and it did not seem to help. This class was real to me. It just made sense when Connie spoke. I could apply what she said to my life and how it works for me. This is class is great!! I learned so much in just four weeks!” – Kimberly Mehr, Burlingame, CA

This is what graduates of the Joyous Parenting Training say about their experience working with this approach.

Be a More Confident and Loving Parent

I had seen my own parents struggle and fail with my older sister’s “attitude”, and I did not want to repeat their misery and have the same disharmony in my own home. Yet, I didn’t know what to do. I knew that the conventional authoritative parenting style of “because I say so, that’s why!” did not work. I also knew that the backlash to that, the “I want to be your friend so much that I’m afraid to discipline” style didn’t work either.

I emerged from Connie’s class a more self-confident and loving parent. Instead of lashing back in anger, I am now able to step back and look at the “big picture” before reacting. I now approach each parenting challenge with an entirely new perspective, and I am closer to my daughter than ever before! – Ann Kramer, San Jose, CA

Parent in Your Own Way

The Joyous Parenting Training is a very unique, intensive and powerful training. Through this training, I’m now able to enjoy my children in a new and special way. I used to have lots of questions about whether I’m doing things right or how to deal with different issues.

All the exercises we did in class every week helped me find the answers from my heart. This is not a class about techniques or how to like the hundreds of parenting books available. This is truly a discovery class. It is personalized. It opened up my heart and mind. The confidence I’ve gained is worth everything. – Denise Liu, Redwood City, CA

Nurture Your Child’s Unique Emotional Needs

Before taking Connie’s Joyous Parenting Training, I struggled to understand my seven-year-old son’s emotional needs as an individual. It was one of those things where, because it was right under my nose, I couldn’t see it. I talked with friends who have children, but I would often find their style of parenting incompatible with my view. And, of course, what worked within their family was not always transferable to my son. So, it wasn’t realistic to expect that their advice would work for me or my boy.

The best thing I got from the Joyous Parenting Training is a closer relationship with my son. I realize now how much he likes to just hang out with me, his dad. The Joyous Parenting Training encourages parents to gain insight into who their child is an individual. I discovered how to have an authentic level of connection with my son and how to be the person my child wants to have as his father. – Peter Lipscomb, Santa Fe, NM

Be More Patient

The Joyous Parenting Training was a lifesaver for our family. As much as we love each other, our evenings together were often a strain, with dinner a miserable battle ground over what our son ate and how much he ate. Instead of being able to relax after work, I felt like I had more. During his first grade year, our son started showing signs of stress, developing a compulsive jaw-pop and being highly self-critical.

When we started the PWJ training, we saw changes immediately. We still have rough patches from time to time, but I feel much more confident that I have good tools to move through them. I know if I am patient, usually together, he and I can come up with good strategies together. – Isabel Parlett, Sante Fe, NM
