“Now we can go out in public with him without causing a scene. He doesn’t hit me anymore—there is no more screaming and yelling. He went from being a cyclone to a sweet child. I would recommend this program to anyone who is having problems with their children because it works. I am living proof and so is my child.” --M.T. mother of a preschooler.
“This program has changed my life because my girls now spend more time together without fighting. This program is fantastic because I learned how to help my child have better behavior in a positive way.” --Captain Hunt Parent (translated from Spanish)
“This is a wonderful approach and I will continue to use it because it gives lasting results that you can be proud of and feel good about.” --Parent and Staff Member
“I would recommend this course to everyone, and hope it can be state and Nationwide, in every school.” P.T. –father of a preschooler.
I learned to find the positive in the moment and spend less time focused on negative behavior. Reinforcing students with praise in the moment they do something great will make them feel very successful making a total difference in their overall behavior. ---Educator
I think that the reset idea is wonderful. It sets the idea that the students are not being overly noticed for negative behavior, but helps establish the expected behavior for the class. ---Educator
There is flexibility in the program to incorporate one's own style. ---Special Educator
I will keep in mind my own greatness, see and recognize the greatness of my students and regularly tell my students of their greatness. ---Veteran Kindergarten Teacher

After the presentation I will try to be more positive and more patient with myself when I make mistakes. ---School Psychologist
