How can you feed children what THEY want and then expect them to behave? How can you get them to eat right if they do not listen to you? What you eat affects your mood and your behaviour.

Diet and Discipline

This topic is all too relevant today. Do not miss tactical advice on how to keep your children safe and equip them to think on their feet when there is no-one around.

Stranger Danger

There are huge differences between guilt and shame. One is constructive while the other is destructive. Our children need to learn empathy for others so that they do not become bullies, or bully others.

Bullies, Bullied and Bystanders

There are appropriate times for punishment, but using discipline incorrectly can have lasting effects. This talk topic looks at the difference types and which methods are most effective.
