Parent Effectiveness Training

A Skills Course for Parents

Do you want to be a better parent to your children?

  • Confront your children’s unacceptable behavior
  • Resolve conflicts between you and your children
  • Listen so your child will feel understood

  • Establish family rules everyone in your family will follow
  • Resolve conflicts so nobody loses
  • Parent with a philosophy that is neither permissive nor authoritarian
  • Become the person your children confide in when they encounter worries or difficulties

Parent Effectiveness Training also explores these important parent/child relationship skills:

  • Understanding relationships with children
  • Learning to help your child
  • Communicating to meet your needs
  • Resolving conflicts
  • Preventing problems
  • Handling values collisions

Through OLPH more than 3,500 individuals have benefited from the skills they have learned in these classes.
