To help clients become willing to attend the program and use the tools, they must know what they are getting into.
Information is the key. Parent’s talk about the program and what you are learning from reading the book. Let them hear and see your belief in the program. Let them hear that others are like them and have gone through this program with great success.
Give them information. Let them know they are intelligent. Let them know they can learn and learn quickly. Let them see the hope and sparkle in your eyes and they will catch it soon enough. Encourage, don’t pressure.
If you don’t believe, they won’t either. Why should they? Their support system is telling them they can’t.
Believe they can and they will rise to the challenge.
