I attended the workshop “How2Talk2Kids” workshop yesterday at Jacaranda Tree Montessori. In the last 24 hours we have taken the straps off my son’s highchair (and the constant battles we had to stop him trying to wriggle out of them have stopped, he has sat beautifully at the table for each meal), we took a walk and managed to have him hold hands safely with only two tiny manageable meltdowns and most importantly I haven’t told him “NO!” in a whole day. Instead I have used the alternatives we discussed in the workshop and, fingers crossed, so far they are working. It may not last (I really hope it does!), but I am parenting more consciously in the last 24 hours and the response from my son has been overwhelmingly positive. A highly recommended workshop and a great chance to hear how other parents are dealing with similar issues. – Emmy McCarthy, www.amsterdam-mamas.nl
