SCROLL DOWN
Most parenting advice starts
with what to say to the child
Some of it helps for a moment. Then the next transition hits, the next pushback starts, and you are back at square one.
The way your child responds to frustration, peer pressure, conflict, and responsibility at seventeen is built in ordinary moments long before then.
That's what this training is really about.
What You Will Discover
Why direct commands so often trigger resistance - and how to replace them with cooperation
How Get Ready, Get Set gives your child runway before a transition
How The Perfect Choice gets shoes on, hands washed, and bedtime moving without a standoff
Why these small moments shape the teenager your child becomes
How Calvin Richert and Carolyn's Direction With Dignity approach turns ordinary moments into long-term growth
Who This Is For
Parents who are tired of saying the same thing three times.
Parents who are stuck in transitions, refusals, and pushback.
Parents who want calmer days now and stronger character later.
YOUR HOST DURING THIS
FREE Parenting Webinar
Kisha Henry Bannister leads this training and walks you through Get Ready, Get Set and The Perfect Choice. Calvin Richert also appears in a brief cameo to share the origin of the framework developed with Carolyn in 1983.
What Parents Are Saying
Julie K.
“My kids are fifteen and thirteen now, and they constantly notice the behavior of their peers. They can recognize their peers’ inability to respond to adversity in a way that demonstrates maturity. The emotions of their peers control their behavior. Our children’s do not.”
Brian M.
“It’s been three years since we graduated from this work. The tools gave our family language we still use every day. One of the most meaningful lessons was learning to guide our child through positive direction rather than punishment. Our home became calmer as a result.”
