Online Class: Discipline is NOT a Dirty Word
May 27 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Cornell Cooperative Extension Orange County is offering a free online parenting education class.
The next parenting class, an all-time favorite: Discipline is NOT a Dirty Word, will be offered in two sessions, on Wednesdays, May 27 and June 3, from 6:30 – 8:00 PM on the Zoom platform. This 2-week virtual parenting workshop will focus on supporting parents and caregivers to create nurturing environments in their home with the help of positive discipline tools.
Parenting and Family life educator, Julika von Stackelberg, commenting on Discipline is NOT a Dirty Word, “Some parents have attended this class multiple times! I think what most of our participants really appreciate is that they have a space where they can share and learn about the journey as parents with others who are experiencing similar things. While each parent and family is unique, our classes often reveal how much of their humanity they share.”
This class will be free, however, registration is required.
