Parenting Classes are designed to enhance skills of parenting in the areas of establishing an appropriate parenting plan and setting healthy rules and boundaries. Good parenting is showing your children right from wrong. These lessons are learned best by example: not, “do as I say not do as I do”!

This process is called modeling behavior. Parents are children’s first exposure to how the world works. They learn from everything in their environment.

That is, the good, the bad and the ugly!

Parents who are candid about mistakes with their children are being honest and children are more likely to realize mistakes are a part of life. However, despite the imperfection that exist during parenting, consistently maintaining positive discipline, child development, effective stress management and ongoing implementation of all the parenting plans will assist parents in the goal of molding compliant, considerate, cooperative, productive, socially responsible, financially independent children.

Marital & Relationship Education Programs Help Keep Couples Together

Studies on the effectiveness of Prep find that couples that have participated in PREP are less likely to get divorced and have significantly higher levels of marital satisfaction. One long-term study on PREP found that couples who took the program before marriage had less negative interaction, more positive interaction, lower rates of relationship aggression, lower combined rates of breakup or divorce and higher levels of relationship satisfaction up to five years following the training.

In the United States, couples marrying for the first time have approximately a fifty percent chance of divorcing. Certified relationship educators are helping couples’ “I do” last a lifetime through application of scientifically tested relationship education programs.
