MARINE CORPS AIR STATION BEAUFORT, S.C. - Marine Corps Community Services will hold a Nurturing Parenting course. The course is a 15 week Celebrations and Consequences parenting group series beginning Sept. 6 from 10 a.m. to noon.
The series brings the dynamic philosophy and practices of nurturing parenting to the Tri-Command community starting Sept. 6, at the New Parent Support Program Conference Room located in the Marine Corps Exchange shopping center at Laurel Bay.
“The Nurturing Parenting Philosophy of non-violent parenting focuses on the development of empathy, self-worth, self–awareness, empowerment, and discipline with dignity, appropriate family roles and age-appropriate expectations of children’s development,” said Marcy Houston, a MCCS behavioral health clinical counselor. “The group features activities to foster positive parenting skills, self-nurturing and family nurturing time.”
Free childcare will be provided for those attending the series as well as light snacks and refreshments.
The topics that will be covered include developing morals and values in children, improving self worth, helping children handle stress and feelings, keeping children drug free and more.
“The program is for the benefit of Marines and their families,” said Houston. “It serves to teach parents non-violent techniques that are much more effective with children.”
