You play a vital role in unlocking children’s potential and maximising their strengths, but In order to do that, you need to understand your child and their needs.

You may have a sense that your child is wired differently, but you don’t know what the problem is, or how to help and support. This webinar shows how with the right connection and communication skills, we can all help such children develop into thriving, resilient adults.

This webinar tells the true story of parenting coach Elaine Halligan’s son Sam, who by the age of seven was so difficult, he had been excluded from three schools and written off in society as stupid and naughty. Through the support of his parents who undertook training in positive parenting skills and explored different therapies and interventions, and accessing the right educational environment, he then went on to become Head Boy in his final school year and is now an intrepid entrepreneur and adventurist.

We’ll show you how you too can unlock your child’s potential and celebrate all the unique qualities your child can bring to society.
