Andrea Hoerandner | Counselor, Coach, Parent
Another amazing product by PositivePsychology.com! As a school director and a parent myself, there have been many times when proactive parents want to take their children’s development home but are unable to do so because of a lack of tools.

As always PP.com delivers! Highly recommend it for parents and coaches who work with parents and child development.

Dr. W. Md Rayman | School Director, Parent
The materials are very well and clearly written and are easy to follow for a non-professional in the field. I love the fact that it covers more than just the verbal parts, as there is so much more that one can do without using words. I also love that it teaches how to change patterns in a family (how kids can set boundaries and how to allow them to do so). The tools teach parents to take time to reflect on their experiences and cherish the good moments!
