COOPERATIVE PARENTING = Peace at home
An intro & small group discussing our family experiences
Cooperative Parenting uses mutual respect to prevent & solve problems in any group. We cooperate by making, trusting & keeping agreements & Plans, by building trust, sharing decisions & meeting democratically now. We enjoy nature, fun role- playing together & exchange energy, ideas & emotions. CP is based on Dreikurs, S.T.E.P & P.E.T. & Positive Discipline by Jane Nelsen. Our focus is mostly here now(Gestalt) awareness of patterns & purposes.We aim to start a parent support group meeting regularly on Maui now. Children are welcome to our circle meeting or can play outside for free. Supportive info provided & trust=games we'll do at the end or?
