THE FAMILY ROOM

Family RoomToday’s parents are eager for a CONVERSATION, not a lecture about what works. They want to participate, and not simply listen.

The Family Room  is unique because it is a guided conversation about parenting. It’s not academic, although it’s based on research, education and experience. It demonstrates effective parenting skills in real time. It’s interactive, dynamic and highly personable. But most of all, it’s immediately practical. Parents will be able to apply insights that they discover within minutes of attending The Family Room.

Like TV’s Super Nanny, Parent Coach Timothy Smith will guide parents in what to do and what not to do with children. But don’t worry; we don’t come to your home with cameras and crew!

How It Works: Parents submit scenarios that they’d like the Parents Coach to address. Through small group discussion; individual planning on worksheets; large group dialogue; training exercises and props; parents gain confidence and skills in a highly active and interactive environment – like a Family Room!

Who? Parents of preschool, elementary and teen children. The event can be targeted specifically to any of these.

Hosts: Schools, churches, parent’s groups, home groups, book groups, PTAs, MOPs, etc.

Why this works: Our current generation of parents highly values authenticity, dialogue, process and discovery. The Family Room  provides content and training for young parents in a casual, relational conversation that fits their style of communication and relationship. It’s encouragement for My Space–Facebook era parents.
