"You need to set a limit!"

"Hold a firm, yet gentle boundary!"

That's what the parenting experts say - so you try it.

But then...

• Your kid looks you in the eye and keeps.doing.it

• You don't know what consequence to follow up with when the boundary is broken

• You can't deal with the crying and screaming, so you give in

• You're too tired to handle the tantrums

• You lose it when they keep doing what you just told them not to

You wonder:

• Am I even doing it right?
• Does my toddler even understand me?
• Why is it not working for my kid?
• Is it sooo bad if I just change my mind or give in?
• How am I supposed to stay calm when they freak out?
  

Sound familiar? I don't have a video camera in your house. I've just been there, done that.

Here's what I do have for you: My 3-step framework for successful limit-setting so you too can put this in your past.

You will learn:

• What a limit actually is
• What it means to "set" or "hold" it
• What to do when your child pushes back (because they will!)

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

• "Pick your battles" (and also, a better way of rephrasing that)
• Feel confident when being firm about something
• Keep your cool when your child voices their displeasure (um, throws a tantrum)

What if my child is older than 6?

I used examples geared towards younger children, but I've applied these principles on my high school students. The principles are timeless and work on all ages. 

Do I REALLY need this?

If you've ever...

• Hesitated, or felt stuck or lost, when your child asks for or demands something...
• Given in and then ended up feeling angry at yourself or resentful at your child... 
• Felt anxious about disciplining your kid in public, like all eyes are on you...

Then yes, you probably need this :)
