The free parenting workshop for elementary age children, “Conscious Discipline," facilitated by Principal Dina Rocheleau, and sponsored by the Ferndale Youth Assistance, takes place at 6:30-8:30 p.m. at Roosevelt Primary School.
"Conscious Discipline" is a process that promotes permanent behavior change in parents and children and the workshop aims to teach these points:
- You are in charge. You can become the person you want to be.
- Power comes from within.
- You are responsible for your feelings and actions.
- Your choices impact others.
- You must teach others how to treat you. You cannot expect them to magically “know.”
- Conflict is a part of life. Mistakes offer opportunities to learn.
- Love is more powerful than fear. Cooperation is more effective than coercion.
Free Childcare provided will be provided, along with light refreshments. To register, call the Ferndale Youth Assistance at 248-586-8700.
