Stefanie Cline Does anyone know if there is a Love & Logic parenting class near Seattle? I've been looking for a few months and can't seem to find one (or any decent parenting classes).

Cathy I've been going to a Love and Logic Parenting class for the past 2 weeks and the class is helping me so much. Thank You!

Jeanne Leix Great to see you on facebook. Thanks for all your help. I use love and logic in the classroom everyday. It's great. Jeanne Leix

Dagmar Sazo thank you!!

Rachel Wheeler Frankovich OK, Love and Logic parents out there. My 7 year old just through a piece of wood through the window of our garage. I remained CALM for the first time EVER in such a situation. He was histerically crying "I'm sorry" but confessed that he threw the wood because he was angry. In my mind, being new to love and logic, I...... wanted to give him a pass saying that he didn't know the wood would break the window...but I calmly told him we'll deal with it later. NOW WHAT? I know he should pay for the window...but what about THANKSGIVING...do we take away privileges over the Thanksgiving break? Any advice greatly appreciated!! (Just finished the last class last night!!)

Love and Logic Institute, Inc. We hope you all have a happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday!

Joy Braley Sampson I was putting my two and a half year old down for a nap today when he decided he didn't want to and proceeded to stick his tongue out and spit everywhere. I told him that I liked that and thought it was cool and that I he should do it louder. He decided it wasn't so cool and then a few moments later silence came....I w......alked in the room to check on him 5 minutes later and he was fast asleep! I love Love and Logic!

Danielle Ames I have been taking a love and logic class for the past month and i am very interested in it! Any tips from parents in how they began to use the love and logic with thier children?

Whitney Barca Love & Logic is amazing! It is an effective approach for my 2's classroom, my high school girls field hockey team, and boyfriends ;)

My son was born deaf. We got him a cochlear implant 3 1/2 years ago. In the hearing world he is 3 1/2 yr old. In real life he is 5 yrs old.
In school we are having a hitting, bitting, and in school and at home it is a directions issue. please help. He seems as if at school he is frustrated by people not being able to c......ommunicate with him very well. He still has speech problems. Outside people cannot understand him very well. At home he just does not listen adn punishing him in many different ways does not work. He even does not care about toys or personal belongings being taken away.
Please help.

I've been impressed with Love & Logic with my toddler & preschooler, until recently. My 4 year old has started being very aggressive. When I remove her from the situation, she comes back for more- yelling, swinging her hands at me, trying to bite. I have tried not to spank, but I'm at a loss, and I have a toddler to ......watch as well. Energy drain won't work because she is in such a rage she is completely noncompliant. If I wait until she FINALLY calms down, and try to talk to her with empathy and explain consequences, the fits begin anew as soon as she loses a privelige or whatever.
Many times I can't keep her in her room, and if I finally DO get her to stay, she screams for me for hours. Logical consquences are great, but how do I get an angry, persistant preschooler to snap out of it long enough to show empathy or administer consequences? I've looked through the resources I have & the articles online, but I haven't found anything new.
HELP!

Ok, let me see if I really understand this L&L stuff. My 3 year old was told to pick up her toys (including the teddy bear that she likes to sleep with at night) which she ignored. I pick up the toys and put them in a trash bag (for the garage sale) and put them away. Then when bed time comes and she asks for her bear,...... I tell her that because I had to pick up her toys, they have all gone in the garage sale stuff pile and she will have to sleep with out the bear tonight. Is that right?
I ended up telling her that she could "redeem" the bear tomorrow with good behavior. Is that right or should she just not get the bear back?
