Empowered Parents Empowered Kids: Parenting Strategies that Promote Happy Families

When you empower yourself, you empower your kids! Use Common Sense, Intuition, the Golden Rule Foster Respect, Honesty, Confidence Are you a parent who "blows" when you get angry? Do you yell, slam, or throw? Or to the contrary, do you lack the confidence to stand up for yourself at home, work, or play? If so, keep in mind ... your children are watching you! They are like mini camcorders storing the sounds and images of your behavior in the deep recesses of their minds, eager and willing to access them-and repeat them-at the drop of the proverbial hat. Truth be told, you have the power to erase those tapes and teach your kids how empowerment can enhance their lives. Empowered, in-charge parents raise respectful, honorable, and responsible children. Through Dr. Essig's insightful, accessible, and easy-to-access approach, you will learn how to - Teach your kids how to problem solve and make doable decisions - Treat your kids with respect-even when they misbehave - Set boundaries and give consequences with "teeth" - Train your kids how to stand up for themselves Dr. Essig has three adult children and four grandchildren. Kids have always been her passion, ever since she was young. Her mother once told her that she always played "teacher" while her friends played "house." Dr. Essig holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education, a Masters degree in School Administration, and a Ph.D. in Transpersonal Psychology.
