Smart Discipline for Parents

The Smart Discipline for Parents Workshop was created in 1985 by Dr. Larry Koenig, a family therapist from Baton Rouge, LA. It is the most well-attended parenting workshop in America with audiences ranging from 150 to over 1200 parents and grandparents (many who come because they are helping to raise their grandchildren).

The workshop is for parents of children of all ages and is two hours long. At the program, parents are taught the Smart Discipline System(tm) and how to ensure that their children grow up with high self-esteem. Parents can expect to be highly entertained and inspired by the presentation.
