12 Hour - Parenting Without Conflict
July 16, 2023
This program is incredible. While I didn't finish it right away, I returned to it once conflicts started to rise again with my co-parent and this program helped guide me in handling the potentially high conflict situations. I am so grateful.
16 Hour - Parenting Skills - Ages 0-5
July 15, 2023
I've learned about parenting styles. It indicates what to work on (reward charts, family meetings, lists of expectation, child's 5 development areas).
8 Hour - Parenting Without Conflict

I enjoyed how simple and straight to the point each section was. I enjoyed how there was a summary at the end of each section just in case I missed something. I found the videos very informative and interesting. This program was easy to use and informative.

The course offers information on types of co-parents and how to deal with them, child development and BIFF. It was more valuable and helpful than I anticipated and I found that I could incorporate much of what was covered into my approach.
12 Hour - Parenting Skills - Ages 5-13
July 15, 2023
I think this program will really help young parents today. I enjoyed the inclusion of technology, parenting issues and societal issues parents are dealing with. The sexual talks were explained well and are needed when so many young people are active today. I was amazed at the information that young children have had 4 sexual partners at their ages. Love the course!
12 Hour - Parenting Skills - Ages 13-18
July 14, 2023
The parenting techniques that are taught, I believe to be mostly true. It does not feed into the woke things of today, which I am highly grateful of.
16 Hour High-Conflict Co-Parenting
July 14, 2023
The journal style questions in the first few sections really helped me moderate responses, as I progressed in the course. It accurately and fairly addressed the issues in a high conflict divorce and offered me opportunities to reflect and move forward positively.

I enjoyed the BIFF method, learning about extreme and moderate behavior - what is and isn't ok. I never knew how stress and adult problems would affect a kid's brain. I've learned to practice managing emotions, to have flexible thinking, to have moderate behavior and to check myself before I say something, to better co-parent, to come to an agreement and try to be flexible even if the other parent is difficult to deal with. It's interesting the brain can stop working when the right side (fight or flight) is being used.

16 Hour High-Conflict Co-Parenting
July 12, 2023
I really appreciated all the information about how I can successfully co-parent, with a co-parent that is not playing fair. I appreciated all the step by step help on the guided talks for my kids. Our kids are younger, so I couldn't use all of it with them. I could use it with my older two though, which were my co-parent's step kids. The divorce has negatively impacted them as well. Thank you!
16 Hour High-Conflict Co-Parenting
July 12, 2023
I linked the pragmatic advice, practice on BIFF, learning about journaling as a way to keep the mind active not passive, the situational context on when to go back to court. I've appreciated the distinction between two high-conflict individuals versus one high-conflict individual and one overwhelmed parent reaching for behavior that could be misinterpreted as high-conflict generating, rather than high-conflict responding. I've really appreciated how the course defined a high conflict parent as it validated my impressions based on Casey's 5 court filings in 18 months, and put into perspective how naive I was to have not included those filings in the custody evaluation supplement. Silly me for thinking Casey and his attorney would not try to avoid acknowledging their filing's roles in driving conflict.

I've appreciated that it provided me the tools I need to communicate with my co-parent and how to deal with conflict. I think the videos were really helpful in showing what different personalities and co-parenting beliefs look like from an outside perspective.

I felt it was very positive focused and it should've been available and required back at the time of divorce being filed. Would have been helpful for EVERYONE to learn. We aren't taught conflict resolution or negotiation growing up.
8 Hour - Parenting Without Conflict
July 9, 2023
I liked the examples and short videos. I see that I was on the right track with how I was handling situations, but have learned the rest of the tools needed to successfully co-parent.
July 8, 2023
The most valuable piece of knowledge that I learned from this parenting class was definitely how to make proposals. The article by Bill Eddy was GREAT. I recently submitted some court documents in which I asked quite a lot of "why" statements of the other parent (the children's father) and now recognize how that could be interpreted as criticism. Now, I have learned about moderate behaviors and that my emotions are contagious to those around me which is why it is important to have systems in place to ensure parents can stay emotionally regulated while they are parenting. For me, learning how to communicate while I am articulating a Proposal rather than ask a WHY statement was a MAJOR growth point for me. Additionally, "the New Ways Parent-Child Talk" article was also extremely helpful. The scripts that were given throughout the units, and the additional resources were extremely powerful tools. Thank you!
