USO Tickets for Troops: Using Sticks! to Build a Structure

This event last took place on May 27th, 2020
8:30 PM CST (2030S)

Join us on Wednesday, May 27th for a virtual discussion with Nadia Swearingen-Friesen, the creator of the popular Sticks family discipline system. With moms and dads finding themselves in a position to micro-manage the day-to-day tasks of their children, stress in our homes increases dramatically. What if we could help our children (even very young children) to grow in independence, manage their own responsibilities, help with household chores and willingly offer help to those around them? What if parents could be released from the managing of every-little-things and find themselves with the time and energy to be the parents they always hoped they would be? This talk will teach listeners to do all of this…and more!
