Behavioral problems may occur when we misunderstand what a child is trying to tell us. Parents may find themselves continuously addressing the same behaviors and wondering why their child keeps repeating these behaviors. This workshop will help parents get under the behavior and discover what it is a child is trying to tell you. The workshop will provide simple, yet effective tools for managing behavior issues. We'll explore the role of development, how to read a child's temperament in the context of "too much, too little or just right" and share strategies to assist parents in better understanding the language of behavior.   Day/Date: Wednesday, October 19 Time: 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm Location: Franklin High School, 218 Oak Street  Cost: $25                               REGISTER  VISIT OUR WEBSITE
