CACTS Parenting Program
Parenting with Connection, Awareness, Curiosity, Trust, and Support
The CACTS Parenting philosophy is built on the notion that behavior is meaningful. Children use behavior to communicate internal experiences when words, regulation, or insight are still developing. Unmet needs lead to "unwanted" behavior.
Our philosophy is that unmet needs develop from insecure attachments throughout the stages of development. These unmet needs influence our belief systems and even our parenting styles, often causing us to treat children as if they are smaller versions of adults.
The problem is... Children are not always emotionally equipped to handle the world around them.
The CACTS Parenting Community helps parents move from control to curiosity; from reacting to responding; from correction to connection. Becoming curious about our children's behavior (instead of seeking to control it) can help us develop a more effective parenting style, better relationships, and more favorable outcomes.
