Popkin's respected parenting class and popular parenting books, you will learn the tools you need to become a successful parent. Even if you don't have time to take a weekly class outside of your home, Active Parenting brings the lessons to you with a unique, interactive online class. The class is based on sound Adlerian psychology, and it provides students with indispensable parenting help.

The comprehensive parenting class "meets" online and covers a diverse selection of parenting topics, including:

Note: Some families require more help than a parenting education class can provide. Active Parenting Publishers does not guarantee changes in children as a result of attending parenting classes. Our programs are educational in nature, not therapeutic. Throughout the program, parents are taught that change occurs when they (the parents) work to make the changes. If problems persist, please don't give up; seek the help of a social services or mental health professional.
