About this listen

With parenting advice coming at you from so many sources, how do you know what to listen to and what to ignore? Parenting the heart of a child is completely different than the behavior modification approaches that often parents use. Instead of relying on rewards, incentives, threats, and punishment, you'll learn how to identify heart lessons to teach your child and implement them in practical ways. In this podcast, Parenting Coaches Dr. Scott Turansky and Elena Zwetsloot will offer you strategies, tools, and practical ideas to help you train, teach, and build relationships with your children.Parenting is Heart Work Parenting & Families Relationships
