A Second Generation Parent Effectiveness Training Instructor Tells Her Story

PRLog (Press Release) - Jul. 18, 2012 - SOLANA BEACH, CA – Gordon Training International will be offering an instructor training workshop for their parenting program, P.E.T., Parent Effectiveness Training, October 29-November 2 in San Diego.

This Instructor Training Workshop is based on a “learning-by-doing” model.  It combines instruction in the core content and skills with exercises providing practice in dealing with group dynamics and the process of teaching and facilitating Gordon Training programs.  Here’s what a new P.E.T. Instructor (who’s own parents took P.E.T. when they were growing up), says about the training:

“Dr. Gordon’s influence in my life has been substantial. My parents took a P.E.T. course in the 70′s and raised our family using his methods. I am ever grateful for their decision, as I was always treated as an equal, listened to, and actively participated in solving problems. The approach instilled a strong sense of responsibility in us at a very young age, which included the ability to see the world from my parents’ point of view. The method provided our family a model for communication that preserved the quality and openness of our relationship throughout my childhood and teen years, making life easier for us and for our parents. My parents did not have to resort to blame, punishment, or force to solve family problems. I loved growing up in this environment and feel passionate about helping others create it as well, which is why I decided to become a P.E.T. trainer.”
