Love and Logic Parenting! Raising kids today is joyful and sometimes difficult. It takes a lot of love AND logic to parent our kids into awesome adults. Joining with other parents to discuss the book "Love and Logic Magic for Early Childhood; Practical Parenting from Birth to Six Years," by Fay and Fay, will sharpen our parenting skills, guide our decision making, and affirm us as parents. Instructor: Lynn Frederickson, is married and the mother of four young adults. She is an expert in the rigors of raising children and has been using the Love and Logic method with her children since they were young. What exactly is Love and Logic? It is a philosophy of raising and teaching children which allows adults to be happier, empowered, and more skilled in their interactions with children. Love allows children to grow through their mistakes. Logic allows children to live with the consequences of their choices. Love and Logic is a way of working with children that puts parents and teachers back in control, teaches children to be responsible, and prepares young people to live in the real world, with its many choices and consequences.
