Raise Kids’ Emotional Intelligence
Learn the Most Important Parenting Skill in the History of the Universe.
Emotion coaching is the key to raising happy, healthy, resilient and well-adjusted children. This class will help you:
- Foster emotional intelligence in children. Emotionally literate children are healthier, better able to deal with challenging circumstances, and less impulsive in school.
- Get your kids to do boring but necessary tasks. Dr. Carter shares the pros and cons of a variety of strategies to encourage children to complete a task.
- Coach kids through change. We all have a few bad habits in the house we want to change; this class provides valuable tips to encourage new good habits in children.
We’ll cover:
- The science behind motivation. Dr. Carter discusses the dangers of using bribes, threats and rewards with kids and why kids who are motivated this way may eventually rely on unethical behaviors to fulfill their parents’ expectations.
- How — and why — not to be a dictator. We’ll detail the ERN (empathy, rationale, non-controlling language) method for encouraging your children. Kids encouraged with this method feel happier when they are performing boring tasks than they would when offered a material reward.
- The benefits of forgiveness. Forgiveness can reduce stress, blood pressure, anger and depression. Dr. Carter will share tactics for encouraging forgiveness in children. Bonus: Studies show that forgiving children are happier and tend to have higher self-esteem.
