Does it feel like a struggle communicating with your teen or preteen (or anyone actually)?
Would you enjoy some evenings with other parents, exploring together how "nonviolent communication" might help your quest for stability, trust, and compassion in your family?
Nonviolent Communication is translating and transforming criticism, anger, and fear, into compassion, patience, and acceptance, for ourselves, and for others.
Come learn and practice with us!
We'll meet at Great River School 7pm Thursdays starting in March. During all four Thursdays in March, Pam Winthrop Lauer will give us an overview of Nonviolent Communication, with ample time for practice exercises. Starting in April, we’ll meet on the second & fourth Thursday and Greg Mott will facilitate. Activities will include viewing NVC videos, making time for sharing our experiences, practicing exercises, role plays, and supporting each other.
Highly recommended: Marshall Rosenberg's books on Nonviolent Communication. Here's just a couple other quick resources:

The Heart of Parenting: Nonviolent Communication in Action
