Are you constantly flaring up and putting out fires in your home? What if you could anticipate the problems and help your children learn how to do the right thing so you can decrease the yelling? Just as fire services prepares our bush land and homes to prevent catastrophic bush fires, as a parent can prevent various crises with your children by being proactive and building strategies for kids. Before your child gets too overweight, makes bad choices, loses good friends or is bullied you can help your kids to develop and build life skills and problem solving skills. This way you can teach them how to act responsibly and make good decisions in their every day lives. In this show you will be inspired to learn new ways to parent and grand parent. By teaching your children how to behave in early childhood, through building positive and cooperative attitudes and problem solving strategies you are more likely to prevent more dangerous issues occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Prevention is definitely better than trying to find a solution when a problem is out of control.
