(Warning:  This is a shameless plug!) Some might think so since they’re giving away all the “tricks of the trade” for only $10 – that’s $100 less than they’d charge for a one-on-one session.

Parents will leave home overwhelmed, frazzled, and “fed up!” but return lively, happy, and refreshed. That’s because, despite having fresh, yummy food in their belly, they’ll be filled with the latest “know how” from FOUR and Life Coaches, on hand to answer your questions.

I Choose Change Counseling and Coaching Center will host a 2-hour seminar this Saturday, October 24 at the Allen Public Library for frazzled parents everywhere.

As the kids would say, “we ain’t foolin’.” The experts intend to whisk you away for at least 1.5 hours, feed you, and send you away with a “Parent Toolkit,” all aimed at giving you new skills, tips, and tricks for dealing with your frustrations of .

10 Compelling Reasons Parents Should Attend:

Learn how your style may be making matters worse with your child
Learn why “Because I said so!” isn’t an effective consequence for children and teens
Know why co- is the best business proposition you’ll enter into
Understand why listening more and talking less really does change behavior (and to connect with your child!)
Learn how your child suffers when you fail to engage in a little self-pampering, plus strategies to get started
Understand why your teen’s friends are WAY more important than you are right now (and why that’s okay)
Learn how rewards like iphone, texting, chatting, computer usage, xbox, TiVo are halting family responsibilities
Learn how to get your child to school, make good grades, and become a responsible social being
Eat free food, mingle with parents just like you, and receive your very own “Parent Toolkit”
Pay only $10!
