Effective Parenting

There is now an Effective Parenting Initiative. It has always been known in Christian churches that parenting is important. Our society is better understanding the link between poor parenting skills and many social ills, such as dropping out of school or joining gangs. Change.org has a proposal to Make Parenting Education a National Priority.

The Plano ISD has a free course for parents from the Love and Logic organization. Here is a notice regarding the most recent class schedule. Here is a sample of Parenting Tips from the course.

This parenting class is another fine effort from the Plano ISD to help the children of Plano, Texas.

PS: I attended a Love and Logic seminar when I was a public school teacher. I can testify they do teach useful methods.
