Becoming a Love and Logic Parent                              

Love and Logic is a philosophy of raising and teaching children which allows adults to be happier,

empowered, and more skilled in the interactions with children. Love allows children to grow through their

mistakes. Logic allows children to live with the consequences of their choices. Love and Logic is a way

of working with children that puts parents back in control, teaches children to be responsible, and 

prepares young people to live in the real world, with its many choices and consequences.

Love and Logic offers adults an alternative way to communicate with children. The Love and Logic

techniques produce immediate results because the techniques are simple, practical, and easy to learn. The

concepts behind Love and Logic place a heavy emphasis on respect and dignity for children and at the 

same time allows parents to grasp simple approaches instead of learning difficult counseling procedures.

Still Waters Counseling offers a seven session Becoming a Love and logic Parent course. This course

teaches parents ways to avoid power struggles with their children by giving choices, setting reasonable

limits, and applying consequences without anger.  Limits are maintained with compassion,

understanding or empathy. Childhood misbehavior is treated as an opportunity for gaining wisdom. 

In the arena of parenting it is possible to feel more confident, have more fun, and be more relaxed at the 

end of the day.		

It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation
