Bring Beyond Behavior To Your Parent Community

Parents See The Behavior
Let's Look Beyond It
The arguing. The attitude. The shutdown. The pushback. The constant need to have the last word.
Parents know what they’re seeing, but they may not always understand what’s happening underneath it, or how what happens at home may connect to what educators see, or don’t see, at school.
Beyond the Behavior brings research, behavior science, real-life scenarios, and practical action together in an interactive experience designed specifically for parents of middle schoolers.

Think this could be a fit for your families? Use the form to tell me a little about your community.
EXPLORE THE FOUR WORKSHOPS

Why Does EVERYTHING Have to Be an Argument?
Look beneath the surface to uncover the repeating patterns that keep different issues turning into the same fight.
Parents leave with: The ability to recognize a repeating interaction pattern and one simple action to begin interrupting it.

Are You Adding
FUEL
to the Fight?
Identify how your responses may unintentionally keep an argument going and discover where you have the power to respond differently.
Parents leave with: Greater awareness of their role in the interaction and practical tools to shift their response in the moment.

“Because I Said So” Isn’t a Communication Strategy
Examine the beliefs shaping your approach to respect and authority, and learn how your middle schooler can have a voice without having the final say.
Parents leave with: A clearer distinction between disagreement and disrespect, and a practical approach to respectful communication that preserves parental authority.

When You’re TIRED of the Relationship With Your Child
Recognize when constant conflict is affecting how you see and connect with your child, and begin rebuilding connection outside of correction.
Parents leave with: A way to recognize relationship fatigue and practical steps to reconnect and strengthen the relationship.
