Connection Parenting: Parenting Through Connection Instead of Coercion, Through Love Instead of Fear

By Pam Leo; Wyatt-MacKenzie

2007; $28 CD, also available as a paperback book ($14) or as book/audio set for $35; www.connectionparenting.com.
A few years ago, NAPPA judge Lawrence Cohen, Ph.D., gave a talk and was amazed by how thoughtful a number of moms were about their children and themselves. When he jokingly asked if they had all taken the same class, they said they’d attended Pam Leo’s “Meeting the Needs of Children” workshop. Now you can hear Leo’s wisdom and warmth in the comfort of your car or while exercising. She shows parents how to foster cooperation-building connections with their children while still juggling work, fragmented family and a faster pace of life.
