My Child Just Won't Listen! What Can I Do?
If you have children, or work with children, plan on attending this FREE event and learn what you can do when your kid just won't listen!
You ask your child to pick up her toys, or put down the video game and start his homework, and the response you get is...silence. An eyeroll. A shrug. Sound familiar? If so, you won’t want to miss the next FREE event in our Behavioral Health speaker series! Dr. Bernard Beckwith, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and father of a junior high student, will lead an engaging, interactive discussion that will help you learn more about:
- Why kids misbehave
- Why our attempts to change a child’s behavior often fail!
- The problems with punishing
- Using “time-outs” and rewards
- Tips for avoiding the dreaded “power struggle”
This event is FREE and open to the public. See details below and we hope you’ll join us on Tuesday, March 31!
