Being a parent of a teenager can cure a person of narcissism.

When a child is disregulated - is the time parents need to be regulated.

We should not medicate the boys so they fit the school; we should change the school to fit the boy. (Leonard Sax, M.D. Ph.D)

Whining and crying are employed by kids for the purpose of getting something. If it works, then it was worth the effort and will be repeated.

Good parenting requires sacrifice. Childhood lasts for only a few brief years , but it should be given priority while it is passing before your eyes

The mistake that Sharon and I both made is we never set any boundaries.  (Ozzy Osbourne)

"Rules without relationship leads to rebellion" (Josh McDowell)

Child & Youth Worker Program at Fanshawe College

 

I am pleased once again to be a part of Fanshawe College’s CYW program at the Woodstock campus. This is a 3 year program with 6 semesters (3 in class at the college and 3 in the field). I am looking forward to reconnecting with a number of former students as their college supervisor. This 4 month field placement is where the students are able to put their academic training into practice.
