LEARN POSITIVE PARENTING'S
Groundbreaking Time-Out Alternative:
Are you tired OF...
asking nicely,
repeating yourself 100 times,
then parenting in a way you're not proud of?
If traditional parenting methods have you feeling disconnected, it may be time for a time-IN…
CONNECTION
- Time-outs prioritize punishment
- Time-outs build walls of isolation
- Time-outs create feelings of shame & resentment
- Time-outs teach kids to suppress emotions
- Time-outs teach kids to blindly obey
GROWING TOGETHER
- Time-ins prioritize teaching
- Time-ins build connection
- Time-ins create feelings of acceptance and love
- Time-ins validate all feelings (*not behaviors)
- Time-ins empower kids to collaborate & problem-solve
CONFIDENCE
86% of parents who subscribe to positive parenting practices say they don’t feel confident holding a time-in!
Why? There’s no “time-in manual.”
Something needed to change….
