Your child doesn’t respond in the way that you expect. You set clear boundaries and hold them – and they go completely ballistic. You count to 3 and they say 4. You ask them to clean their teeth and they do anything but – what’s going on?
Everything you do seems to make things worse. Time out, the Naughty Step, being firm but loving – you had good intentions to pick your battles but your child hasn’t got the memo. They are picking battles where you didn’t even know they could be found.
It’s not your fault. You’ve got the wrong tools. Your child (and you) need low demand parenting.
What is low demand parenting? Well, it’s parenting which turns the traditional rules of parenting on its head. Traditional parenting is all about control, whilst low demand parenting….is about your relationship with your child, and so much more.
In this series of best-selling recorded webinars, Dr Naomi Fisher and Eliza Fricker will guide you through the world of low demand parenting. You’ll discover why your child responds the way that they do, and learn how to do things differently. You’ll reset your parenting to prioritise your child’s emotional wellbeing. You’ll learn how to reframe behaviour and communications.

Updated for 2024! What do you do when mainstream parenting makes things worse - but you still need to live in the real world?
Dr Naomi Fisher and Eliza Fricker take on tutting in the supermarket, disapproval in the playground, and grandparents who can't see why you don't insist on Saying Please. And they'll discuss what happens when parents disagree about the right approach, or when professionals get involved.
Updated for 2024! How do you manage screen time, when your child doesn't play by the parenting rules?
How can you be low demand parents, whilst your child goes to school? What can you do to take the pressure off and give them the space to thrive? That's what we'll be discussing in this new webinar.
Some children are pressure-sensitive. They react to traditional parenting methods in unexpected ways. The more their parents try to set firm boundaries or implement reward systems, the worse things get.
How can you make space for yourself, whilst also doing the best you can for your children? How can you make sure your own needs matter, when your child's needs are so high that they can't be put aside? Is it even possible for life to feel more sustainable?
