Join Jane Pfefferlé (Ma, CCADP, Counselor SGfB) for 7 Tuesday mornings in this lively informative course that will teach you new strategies for raising independent, responsible teens. Jane is very skilled at helping us understand our teenager`s development stage and what might be going on in their heads!
"This course was terrific as the 7 weeks allowed me to begin implementing some of the techniques Jane taught. It has improved my communication with my teenagers and stop the nagging as they are now taking more responsibility around the household" Mother of 13 and 15 year old.
“You know, I thought I knew what to do in all circumstances with my children, but when my second child hit those teens years, well he was so different from his older brother, I just did not know how to handle the situations facing me”. Parent of two teenaged sons.
