Parent Testimonials- Autumn 2009 Talks
“I got so much out of the talks. I'm only sorry I didn't come across these ideas a year ago.”
“The simple ideas presented in the talks have made a massive difference to how I approach various situations. I feel so much more confident in my parenting. My relationship with my 3 year old has improved dramatically and so quickly. I can't thank John enough.”
“I attended John's talks and found them very informative, well delivered and very useful. In fact I still hear John's voice in my head when things are not going too well! I have read his book Positive Parenting which I found very practical with plenty of sound advice.”
“John is an excellent presenter, funny, passionate and very well informed. He communicated his ideas very clearly in a relaxed manner. Feeling equipped and confident as a parent now.”
“My son is 14 months old so personally I found John's advice helpful with regard to being aware of what NOT to do for the future! Now that he is becoming a busy toddler I've no doubt I will be referring to John's book very regularly!”
“I didn't feel I had the where with all to bring things quickly under control (with my child). I was allowing the frustration to take over. I now have a plan in my head as to how I approach difficult situations. I don't get frustrated and I can remain calm as we work things out”
“I'm on a bit of a high with the results I'm seeing between (me and my children) already.”
“I found John’s suggestions to parent’s questions brilliant and were very ‘doable’
“I’m delighted I came across these talks, left me feeling a lot more hopeful and empowered in parenting my 8 year old.”
“The talks were humorous and personal with plenty of opportunities for parents to ask questions...having John's books available also gave parents a place to go for backup after the talks.”
