Helping Children (and Teens) Change Their Behavior (Intermediate): Using the Social Engagement Window

Restorative practices are based on the fundamental belief that our children (or teens) are the happiest, healthiest and most likely to make positive changes in their behavior when parents/caregivers do things with them rather than to them or for them. [iirp.edu]
Based on the social engagement window, parents/caregivers will discover where their discipline style lies on the four quadrants: To, Not, For or With. When parents/caregivers implement discipline using this framework, the results for children’s/teen’s behaviors are surprising. An overview of the quadrants and styles, video clip, and a reflective circle make this workshop engaging and practical for parents/caregivers. Available in Spanish. Workshop Length: 45 minutes.
