Presented by: Anderson & Associates Counseling and Psychologist Services
Every other Tuesday at 7pm starting July 12th (Bonus seminar on August 2nd)
Parenting! It’s not what it used to be when chewing gum in school was one of the big issues of concern! Now, alcohol, drugs, bullying, technology obsessions, internet predators and angry people with guns are higher on the list of problems to solve. Modifying children’s behavior first requires parents, teachers and all the other adults in our society to modify theirs.

July 12th– The First Step To Happy Successful Kids (and 
adults) is To Do Away With “Normal”
This teleseminar will look at the uniqueness of every child and will lay the foundation for helping them discover value and feel good about and use their special gifts and talents to make the world a better place. Listeners will learn to value differences and stop seeing others as “below average”, “abnormal”, and not good enough. We will eliminate prejudice and bullying and improve self-esteem so people will seek to behave in positive ways that give them a chance to feel good about being themselves and doing what they do best to help others and become self-sufficient.
July 26th Understanding Your Child’s Uniqueness Evaluations & Assessments
No two kids are the same and we all need “special education” to succeed. Some of us are born with illnesses that could be neurologically, cognitively or chemically based. This teleseminar will help parents get professional guidance to show them how to find their child’s strengths and weaknesses and the treatment and behavior plan to reach their potential.
BONUS TRAINING-August 2nd Getting Children To Value Good Behavior By Modeling It
You can’t teach something you don’t know and can’t positively model. Knowing what is important to you and living your life to reflect your true values is the foundation of how you will raise your children. This teleseminar will identify ways that we inadvertently model the very behaviors we don’t want our children to have and how we can start to live our own life values.
August 9th Sibling Rivalry and Bullying
If we could only see and appreciate each person’s uniqueness and make them feel good about being who they were we would have much less sibling rivalry and bullying. This teleseminar will teach how to prevent conflict and what to do when it happens.
August 23rd Goal Setting Rewards and Consequences
If you fail to plan then plan to fail! We all do best when we have a to-do list, a schedule and positive rewards and consequences that follow our plan to monitor our behavior. Children need help making good habits. This teleseminar will give parents proven and simple strategies to help children develop habits that they WANT to do because they bring positive results.
September 6th Common Illnesses That Can Drive Parents and Teachers Crazy and What To Do About Them
Attention Deficit Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorders and Learning/Cognitive Disorders are all legitimate “illnesses” that are often misunderstood, misdiagnosed or not acknowledged at all. Getting angry at a blind child because they can’t see something is like getting angry at a child with ADHD that can’t sit still and says I forgot more than please and thank you! This teleseminar will offer the common symptoms and treatments and parenting tools for these disorders.
September 20th When Your Kids Use Drugs
Whether it is tobacco, marijuana, meth or some other substance, having kids (of any age) use drugs is concerning. Yelling, screaming, threatening or timing them out may only serve to make matters worse. Covering for them when they screw up doesn’t help either. This teleseminar will look at how to deal with substance abuse in your family and where you can go to get help.
October 4th Suicide Precention
Suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death in students 15 and older and we need to teach kids how to cope with life and how to grieve their losses so they don’t turn to some self-destructive way of harming themselves. This teleseminar will help parents to teach positive coping and to find the clues that kids may be leaving that they need help.
