Speaking Event Testimonials
“Thank you Dr. Carter for pushing my love and excitement about parenting into the stratosphere! The research, stories, and media you presented, confirmed, without question, the importance of deliberate parenting choices for happy children and a happy family. Even days after your presentation I get choked up thinking about the joy and beauty possible in a family where happiness is the priority. Even though my daughter is only a year old, your presentation makes me excited about her future and our decision to weave your techniques into our family’s daily routines. Thank you for the inspiration and motivation!”
