Parent Voice cover

Find your best voice to inspire your child to reach their aspirations.

With no single or right formula to teach, reassure, or help a child, no precise age gauge for first experiences, and blurry lines between clear, obvious, and gut decisions, how can a parent know what is best or right in the course of their child’s education?

Parent Voice applies thought, experience, and a developmental model for parents to follow that allows for differences in personalities, dispositions, and supporting players.

Real musings give real-life examples of parents positively influencing their child’s education
Reflection questions encourage engagement and application
Action items offer guides for each stage of a child’s development

Be the guide and advocate your child needs by finding your best parent voice.

This book provides important wisdom from experienced educators that incorporates deep knowledge of children’s needs and development to help parents listen to their children, learn from them, and lead them towards becoming self-reliant adults."
