“John’s writings are characterized by both practicality and compassion, and he has had a decidedly positive influence on families for several decades now.”
~ Dr. James Dobson
On Sunday, March 17th from 3-6pm author and Christian psychologist Dr. John Rosemand is holding a seminar titled, “Parenting with Love and Leadership” at Union Church in Vernon.
The church’s website shares this about the event:
Children need the significant adults in their lives – parents, teachers, caregivers – to provide them with the two “L-Words” of Love and Leadership. In the case of love, it must be unconditional. In the case of leadership, it must be unequivocal.
In this often humorous and thought-provoking seminar, family psychologist John Rosemond describes the contemporary parenting conundrum in clear, compelling terms and then describes a practical, tested solution. He teaches how to motivate maximum child compliance by using “leadership Speech.”
$10 per person, cash or check only
Tickets can be purchased at Ellington Agway, 74 West Road (Route 83) in Ellington, at the door of the event or by contacting Marcia Kupferschmid at marciakup@aol.com
