A morning workshop to help mothers of children from birth to around age 7 to better understand their child’s behaviour.
This talk will give mothers:
The exciting developments within the fields of neuroscience, neuropsychology & biochemistry offer us powerful new insights into human brain development, shedding light on how it is THIS which influences a young child’s developing behaviour pattern.
We have been running courses for parents of teenagers for several years with the aim of better understanding & managing their behaviour. The seeds sown in the early years set the pattern for later personality development. As parents ourselves, we wish we had known more about the significance of the parent/child relationship in the early years so that we could have managed family life more smoothly.
In the many years we have spent parenting our teenagers (7 between us), training as counsellors, carrying out our own research, lecturing as well as delivering our own courses, what has become increasingly apparent to us is the gathering body of research which confirms that the smooth passage of the teenage years is critically dependent upon the quality of the relationship that is established between the parent (the mother, in particular) and child in the very early years. As mothers, we both wish we had known - when our children were babies - what science is now telling us about how to create a good relationship from the very earliest stage of child development. We have designed our courses around this.
The aim of our 3 hour course is to help mothers become more aware of their own patterns in their principal relationships from their child’s earliest years. We look at different ways of communicating and the possible impact of our communication style on our child. We also examine different child behaviours and the meaning that might lie behind them. Alongside this, we look at punishment & discipline and what is going on in the brain of your child. Small changes made by parents in the early years can help a child to develop into a more mentally, physically and psychologically robust adult.
