How to Motivate and Help Your Teenager in Choosing His Professional Career and Discovering His Life Purpose
Parents will have a deeper understanding of the importance of belonging through love and significance through responsibilities. When teenagers feel loved and important, it boosts their immune system, stabilizes their heart rate, and reduces stress. When teenagers feel better, they tend to do better at home and school. Also, parents will understand how their teen's brain works. They will acquire tools and skills in how to motivate them from the inside out intrinsically. Parents will understand the process that turns mistakes into learning opportunities while looking for career choices and life purpose.

What the principals say about the workshops
Disciplina Positiva is simply one of the best training programs Loara High School has been able to offer parents. The impact the training has had upon our families has been profound, and there is no question that our students and campus have benefitted tremendously. That said, I can assure you that providing Disciplina Positiva training will continue to be a priority at Loara.
