If you are visiting this site for the first time please leave a message to share your thoughts and concerns .

Once again I will be teaching Parent Talk classes in the Dearborn Schools. So if you are reading this and you want to sign up for classes speak with your school principal about  hosting Parent Talk classes in your community school. A certification of completion is awarded to the participants. Many graduates have told me multiple times how much they appreciated the course and how much it changed their lives. Everyone is welcome to participate.
I look forward to meeting you at one of the schools and supporting you in your efforts in parenting and raising healthy, productive and responsible children!
