You asked for it!
A 3-session program for parents of children ages 5 to 12
Customers have told us that they love our best-selling Active Parenting Now program...but sometimes it's hard to get parents to commit to six sessions. So we've taken the highlights of the 6-session program and created a new program: Active Parenting Now in 3.

In just three sessions, you will show parents how to use nonviolent discipline, positive communication and effective encouragement. Designed for parents of children ages 5 to 12, Active Parenting Now in 3 combines video, activities and discussion to help parents raise responsible, cooperative children.

How did we do it?
To make a shorter program, we cut out much of the "theory" and concentrated on the skills. The information has been rearranged and presented in a more concise format. Active Parenting Now in 3 contains many of the same video scenes as the longer program, rearranged to fit the new format. The specially designed Active Parenting Now in 3 Leader's Guide and Active Parenting Now in 3 Parent's Guide take you step-by-step through all three sessions.

Written by Active Parenting Publishers founder and president Michael H. Popkin, Ph.D., this video-based parenting program makes it easier for you to help today's families. (Also available on DVD.)

Here’s what you'll be teaching:

• Session I:
  - Styles of parenting
  - Mutual respect and how to achieve it
  - "Method of choice"
  - Handling problems

• Session II:
