Some children are very sensitive to pressure. When their parents count to three, they don't move. They don't respond to either gentle suggestions or firm boundaries. Their parents quickly feel powerless. All communication becomes conflict, with parents unsure what they are doing wrong.
You're not doing anything wrong. You've got the wrong tools. For some children, most of the techniques of mainstream parenting just don't work, and can often make things worse. You need a low demand approach.
Dr Naomi Fisher (Clinical Psychologist and author of Changing Our Minds) and Eliza Fricker (illustrator and author of The Family Experience of PDA) will help you change the way your family communicates to focus more on connection and less on conflict. They'll explain why mainstream approaches aren't working, and give you some practical alternatives.
Eliza's original and witty illustrations will bring the whole thing to life. You'll feel a connection with other families. You will realise that you aren't alone and that there is a better way.

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?
