Siblings Without Rivalry™
gives parents the know how they need to foster an atmosphere of love and respect.
Help your children learn to live with one another so you can live with them too.
Join over 200,000 groups - in schools, homes, churches and industry - who have successfully used this programme to open lines of communication with and between children.
The goal of the Siblings Without Rivalry™ workshop is to help you help your children learn to live with each other.
Each session sensitises parents to the things that increase hostility between children and the attitude and the language that decreases hostility.
During each session, parents will learn and practice specific skills that help reduce friction and make harmony possible.
You’ll find out how to:
-
1.Help children express negative feelings without hurting each other;
-
2.Treat children unequally and be fair;
-
3.Free your children from harmful roles such as “bully” or “victim”;
-
4.Respond helpfully when children fight;
-
5.Promote an atmosphere of co-operation, instead of competition;
-
6.Resolve conflicts effectively.
The workshop is run over 6 2-hour sessions or 12 x 1-hour sessions, and are specifically tailored to deal with specific age groups and issues.
Professionals & Parents Say ...
“A double blessing! … Group members not only reported much less quarreling and quibbling between their children, but several parents went back to their own families to resolve old rivalries.”
Babara Fousek, Clinical Social Worker,

“It was a revelation to run the workshops and see how much better brothers and sisters got along after their parents had taken the course.”
Susan Passaretti, First Presbyterian Church Nursery School, N.Y. City
“When the How To Talk So Kids Will Listen™ workshop series came to an end, everyone wanted more. The Siblings Without Rivalry™ workshop was the perfect follow-up. It have us the tools to help our children get along better and even led us to a greater understanding and acceptance of our own siblings.”
