Peaceful Parenting Discussion Group
Are you seeking more joyful and harmonious relationships with your children?
If you are, come check out our discussion group that meets the 4th Monday of every month.  We meet to support one another as we explore and practice non-coercive parenting and consensual living.  This is a parenting practice that values the wants and needs of everyone equally - regardless of age - and avoids power struggles through the creation of mutually agreeable solutions.

Time:  7 – 8:30 pm
Where:  Raw Learning
Contact Person:  Anne Hunter @540-885-0748
