On this level, Parenting Wisely is just like any other parenting program, but it is the details that distinguish PW. Years of research and development have culminated in a program designed by professionals for use by those who truly need it.
Online Interactive Format
Available online, PW’s interactive format encourages maximum skill retention. Parents choose from different video enactments of typical family struggles, from teenagers playing loud music to trouble in school and more. After viewing the conflict, users must choose from a list of options representing different levels of effectiveness. Each behavior is portrayed and then critiqued through an interactive question and answer session. The in-depth tutorials highlight the parenting skills depicted and give further insight into beneficial behavior. Each session is then concluded with a quiz, further engraining the information.
After completing all sessions, the information is unmistakably apparent to the users. Presented visually, audibly, and in text, the information will be absorbed by all types of learners.
