I have to tell you, I was greatly impressed with the DVD series. The How-To-Program gave me the confidence and Peace I needed in order to learn how to deal with unruly children, teens and adults. I have been surprised at the great results and insights that the program has afforded me by using it. Most every piece of advice given and acted out in the DVD series for the parent to learn was so informative to me, since I had no healthy parenting in my upbringing. I was dumbfounded at how simplistic these techniques, rules of thumb and methods were. But, amazed at how much they work with people who are unruly, ill-tempered, abusive and so on. There was such a wide range of scenarios that were so liberating in learning how to do this. In using them, I had greater confidence AND HOPE above all. My depression started to dwindle away as I was able to better deal with the very people I am suppose to and wanting to love, my family members. Our 11 year old granddaughter, who has special needs is much more cooperative and is more secure because the boundaries are much more clearer to her. I am more consistent with consequences and I find I am happier with myself for making the deliberate effort to lay out the choices clearly for her, leaving her no wiggle room to make excuses for her behavior. I am no longer manipulated and guilted into backing down. She knows now that "I mean what I say (lovingly and controlled) and I say what I mean. And no more. I feel it is even a marriage support program, as well. All of the petty wearing-me-out talk is diminished due to reflecting and utilizing all of the different tools for each unique situation we find ourselves in. Teens can no longer pit one parent against the other causing greater division in the home. I am so thankful that the program was built to be so blatantly honest with the combative behaviors our teens display because that reality really hit home. The "mirroring of upset adult parents" was an eye opener as to how damaging those behaviors were fueling the teen's reactive attitudes. I am no longer on the defensive and am able to find fair solutions and consequences. And I am more readily to listen and do not feel threatened. Thank you for the peace that has been brought back to my home. I also, have had greater understanding of how I react since finding out, through "your program" that I have ADHD and ADD myself. I had always suspected it, however never knew where or how to get tested for it and the very thought of doing that seemed undaunting to me. Thank you for helping people like me make sense of the craziness we have endured. My ONLY WISH is that we had heard about you 30 years ago when we first started raising our children. We are now learning how to break unhealthy parenting patterns through this program and we see a new dawn emerging by passing these skills onto our adult children and our soon-to-be ten grandchildren.
