Thousands of Parents Are Joining Us! Are You In?
(*Starts Monday)
Our Experts Have Been Featured In
It's ironic, isn't it?
Before we have kids, none of us really thinks of learning about parenting.
And after we have kids, who has the time?
So technically, we're doing the hardest job on the planet—raising human beings—with little or no prior training, some hearsay knowledge and a lot of 'gut feeling'!
Can you imagine a doctor or a plumber doing their job this way?
No wonder most of us default to nagging and yelling so often. And unsure of what to do when faced with difficult situations.
It's time to change this!
Over the course of next week, 20 experts with decades of research, clinical and personal experience will share tips and techniques we parents can use to stop rudeness, defiance, back talk and other triggering behaviors. And start raising happy, well-adjusted kids in our calm and peaceful homes.
And the best part?
It's FREE and fully online!

What People Are Saying About Our Masterclasses
“
My son is 3 years old and I have felt overwhelmed throughout most of my parenting journey. These masterclasses have not only offered guidance for the challenges I'm currently facing but also discuss topics I may face in the coming years. Knowledge is power and I feel so much more confident in my new role as a parent after watching the masterclasses.
-Michelle S.

You are a Godsend! THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for putting this together! I just recently stumbled upon your website and WOW such an answer to my prayers. You are planting a VERY big seed for generations to come!
-Casey V.
“
This has been life-saving for us. The classes have completely changed us and is helping us SOOOOO much. I can’t even relay. We are barely yelling anymore, and are finding our way on this positive parenting path! Thank you.
-Sarah P.
“
So far I have 36 pages of notes and I am only part way through day 2. Words cannot express how much I am enjoying and valuing listening to many authors I respect and being introduced to new ones. I am a mum of two boys (4 and 3) as well as a Social Worker in Child and Adolescent Mental Health. This is helping me both personally and professionally.
-Brooke B.
“
I watched the masterclass with Carla Naumburg and it was AMAZING. I learned so much! I'm a clinical psychologist besides being a mom and very excited when I can learn such valuable information.
-Amélie F.
“
My daughter was 5 when I first came upon your website (by some miracle) - this Sunday she’s turning 14. You, your work and your contagious positivity have been a part of our household for so many years now. Thank you, thank you! I watch for your email about the masterclasses - I love them.
-Anna T.
“
I got my kids to help me design a timetable with what they need to take to school each day for their classes and activities and we stuck it on the inside of the front door. They’ve responded really well to having to take responsibility for themselves - and I am much less stressed in the mornings!
-Natalie W.
“
I've noticed a distinct change in how my 11 year old handles situations that upset him and I think it's all due to the peaceful way I approach things now. We talk and ask questions instead of threaten with punishments and it's really made a difference. #littlevictory

- Take notes as you watch, specifically about ideas that apply specifically to your family. (Each masterclass has a "notes" template at the end that you can use if you wish. Remember to print it out before the bootcamp ends.)
- If there's a masterclass you are interested in, but you can't watch it on the day it is shared, make a note of it, so you can watch it during the bonus catch up days on the weekend.
- Keep an open mind and be receptive. These ideas have transformed parents lives!

Meet Your Host
Hi, My name is Sumitha and I am a regular parent like most of you.
Before I had my daughter, I honestly didn't give much of a thought to parenting. After all, parents have done this for ages... how hard can it be, right?
Oh, how naive I was!
My daughter challenges me every step of the way. She is my joy one minute and a source of abject exasperation the next. Raising her has made me come face to face with the depth of my character and the shallowness of it. I revel in my strengths one moment and the next, I am moved to tears by my weaknesses.
In 2013 I started AFineParent.Com to make sense of it all. Its been a fascinating and fulfilling few years since! This conference is in some sense a culmination of everything I set out to do then -- be curious, learn, keep an open mind and find a way to really enjoy the journey while finding a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
I hope you find as much value in participating in this conference, as I did in putting it together!our text here...
