Fostering Family Well-Being

Parenting Tips for Family Well-Being

Every age is different—you need to know what to do at each stage of growth.

New Family Network offers a comprehensive model for youth and human development. You can learn how to relate to your child in age-appropriate ways, which makes them much more receptive to your guidance.

Learning to recognize the weaknesses in your parenting style is key to building more parenting strengths.

Parenting is the most important job you will ever have, but most of us have never received any training in parenting skills. Network programs can help you pinpoint parenting patterns that aren't working, and learn invaluable new parenting skills.

Knowing how to ask the right questions lets you in on your child's "secret life".

Building trust and intimacy is the first step toward open communications-but you also have to know how to talk to your child in specific ways that change as she ages. Let our coaching services and classes help you learn the skills needed to be as close as you can to your child—and keep them talking to you openly.

The disciplines that work change dramatically as your child gets older.

Disciplining a teenager the way you discipline a 10 year old, or a 10 year old the way you would a 5 year old, is tantamount to disaster. Learn and apply these universally true dynamics in very practical, hands on terms—and see the difference they make for yourself.

Freedom and responsibility go hand in hand.

Responsibility comes first, but greater freedom must follow. When your child responsibly does his homework on time, then he can have the freedom to choose to watch tv or have a friend over. Understand this dynamic, how and why it works, and apply it in all areas of life.
