You KNOW Today's World is Different Than When YOU
Were a Child --- but are Children Different, too?
Parents have been raising children for eons, without any books, classes, or "experts."
The science of parenting started around the 1940's, almost 80 years ago! Human beings don't biologically or psychologically change much in 80 years, even 800 years, so children have not changed much since then.
The first parenting education programs started in the 1960's, based on this research. More recent research has confirmed most of the initial findings, and explains more about why children are the way they are, based on recent brain science.
Parents Toolshop® was created in 1992, based on a 10-year literature study of hundreds of proven-effective research-based parenting programs to date, and is constantly updating, based on new research and current events. But you know what?
In the 30 years we've been teaching our core parenting skills training we've continued adding new programs based on current events that parents (and their children) are facing. Only one teaching had to change as new research emerged. Otherwise, everything The Parents Toolshop® teaches has been confirmed by ongoing research!
Children Haven't Fundamentally Changed, but our Global Society Has, so You are Facing Parenting Issues Previous Generations Never Even Imagined!
You Need Practical, Proven-Effective Solutions
YOU and other parents today are facing all the common challenges almost all parents have historically faced, including those we feature in our Done4U Solutions Resources: Getting Children to Bed, Asleep, and Staying there all Night --- Homework Hassles –-- Morning Madness --- Teaching Children how to Clean & do Chores --- Picky Eaters --- Sibling Squabbles --- Temper Tantrums --- Basic Bullying --- and many more.
PLUS, you face NEW ISSUES & CHALLENGES the new millennium & global community present that no other generation of parents (or children) have had to face!
These are the topics we discuss on our live Parents Tool Talk® monthly webinars, we we interview experts and discuss topics like: social media --- access to technology 24/7 --- cyberbullying --- school shootings --- gun violence --- and more.
While you are in new territory, children are still human beings whose development hasn't fundamentally changed and current research still supports using the "proven-effective" skills parents have been advised to use for decades. So it's really only the ISSUES that are different, so parenting how you were parenting will no longer be enough for your children to get by on. So what does that mean?
You Also Need a Proven Plan That Empowers You to Find Your Own Solutions, Customized to Your Needs
Children need empowered and equipped with the skills, characteristics, and qualities they need to successfully navigate today's ever-changing world, with all its temptations and pitfalls. So YOU need to be empowered with a parenting system that equips YOU with the knowledge and mastery of parenting skills that can teach and guide your children --- each child, through each stage and situation, based on their individual needs and your family values.
Only Parents Toolshop® offers a proprietary Universal Blueprint® for Parenting
Success System that give you the special language and action tools to:
- Prevent many common parenting problems from ever starting.
- Respond effectively to challenges that do arise, based on that child, in that moment, at that age, in that situation.
- Open the lines of communication so you can connect more deeply with your children,
- Empower you and your children with valuable life and relationship skills, and
- Take your relationship to a whole new level, so you enjoy every minute together.
Most Parents Toolshop® programs that teach the Universal Blueprint® system offer private one-on-one coaching or group support.

Like-Minded Parents
In today's world, if you ask a parenting question you never know what answer you are going to get or who is going to answer it. There are so many opinions and even people who label themselves parenting "experts" and some professionals with credentials behind their names can give you advice that might "work" in the short-run but have negative long-term consequences that can cause bigger problems later. It's a lot harder to undo ineffective parenting than to have a proven plan, practical tools, and support and encouragement while you are practicing and using them at home. That's where Jody, certified Parents Toolshop® advisors and other parents in the Parents Toolshop® Community can help. We are all there for you. Just join our membership community, get immediate access to dozens of practical free resources, and start connecting with other parents like you.

Testimonials from Parents Toolshop® Clients
"
I have read numerous articles, magazines, and books which addressed parenting issues, attended lectures, and met with counselors in the past. Yet, I have never attended a class a thorough, well-organized and interesting as The Parent’s Toolshop. I gained so much more than I ever expected when I signed up for this class. The most rewarding aspect was seeing positive results at home with my son, who is diagnosed with A.D.H.D. These techniques really work!!
– Rebecca Streeter
"
At work, I have weekly, quarterly, and yearly goals. To achieve these goals, I develop a plan that I think (and hope) will work. I attend workshops, seminars, and classes to learn better methods to work my plan. The Parent’s Toolshop has the same effect on working my parenting plan. Knowledge is power.
– Rich Munn
