Why Won't My Kids Behave?!
Learn proven parenting techniques with our online parenting class

It's the full-time job that we don't get paid for: raising children. But being an incredible parent doesn't have to be a stressful part of your life anymore. With Dr. Michael H. 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 indispensible parenting help.

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

• using effective communication skills
• understanding why children misbehave
• holding family meetings
• and much more!

And because it's an online parenting class, you can complete the lessons wherever and whenever you would like, and review past lessons as many times as you need. Aside from providing parenting help through planned lessons, the online class also allows you to connect with other parents to hold discussions and complete activities. There is even an optional live chat feature for extra parenting conversations.

Though you may be skeptical of online classes, rest assured you will receive quality instruction and parenting help from a certified Active Parenting Online Leader. These educators are screened, tested and evaluated by Active Parenting staff members before receiving additional training on teaching an online parenting class.

You will receive excellent advice and parenting techniques from a highly qualified leader, access to online resources and videos, and the ability to discuss parenting with other adults around the country—all in one parenting class at the low cost of $49.95. It's a small price to pay for a priceless learning experience.

For six weeks, you name the time and place.
Each week is a new lesson, and you'll have all that week to "click on and off" to complete the lesson. The six-week enrollment period allows you "24/7" access to all online activities, discussions and past lessons.

Note to court-ordered parents requiring certification:

The Active Parenting Now Online Groups program does not automatically provide written certification of your completion of the course. A certificate can be provided upon verification of eligibility from your group leader to us.

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.
