minnetteriordan.com
This talk emphasizes the ways in which we shut down our children’s feelings without even realizing it, how to learn to listen more constructively and build the foundations of a relationship that will last a lifetime. From the time our children are born, we can help them understand how to express their feelings in ways that are appropriate. By creating a loving, safe environment for our children, they will learn to thrive as independent, happy children in any setting.

12/11: Project Compassion at PTCC!
This is going to be an amazing fall! Please don’t hesitate to email or call me with any questions.
Can’t wait to see you!
