Love and Logic Parenting Book Discussion Group Held by ES Counselors, Ellen Thomas and Kate Kersey, Monday Mornings, Jan 15-Feb 12
If you want to raise kids who are self-confident, motivated, and ready for the real world, take advantage of the Love & Logic win-win approach to parenting. Your kids will win because they’ll learn responsibility and the logic of life by solving their own problems. You’ll win because you’ll establish healthy control—without resorting to anger, threats, nagging, or exhausting power struggles! We will meet once a week for 5 weeks, starting Jan 15, and the discussion group will end on Feb 12. The group is limited to 50 parents on a first-come first-serve basis and registration closes on Dec 1. The discussions will be held on Monday mornings from 8:00 – 9:30 a.m. in the ES MPR. Click this link to register. You can also purchase the book through ISB for 900 Baht, or you can purchase the book on your own.
