Help Wanted! Getting Kids to Take on Household Tasks
For Parents of All Ages
Getting kids to help around the house can be more daunting than just doing all the chores ourselves. But that makes us stressed, overtired, and resentful! And it prevents children and teenagers from learning important life lessons. Discover ways to engage all family members in contributing positively to household responsibilities while building their self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.
In this webinar, you'll learn about:
- making sure household tasks are truly shared by the whole family
- why it matters for kids to learn chores (hint: life skills)
- setting up a team approach and building cooperation as a family
Your enrollment includes access to the video recording, an audio version that you can listen to podcast-style, and handouts.

"I enjoyed the program. I really liked hearing the strategies and then a real life scenario that actually pertained to me and how to step-by-step use the strategy to solve the problem."

"I liked it! It's not always easy to attend classes in-person, so the online class is very convenient and conducive for both parents to participate."
