Nitsan and Caroline Gaibel, parents of four children, developed this e-course to solve their own parenting issues with their Middle Schoolers. Even after trying books, tapes and expensive parenting therapists the Gaibels still found themselves struggling with parenting problems. Where was a solution that was not expensive, convenient and offered wise advice from experienced parenting experts? And most importantly, it had to be pinpointed to the specific problems of parenting Middle Schoolers.
The Internet seemed a perfect place to look, right? Surprise! The web has millions of excellent parenting articles but sifting through them all and finding the exact ones that are relevant is lengthy and exhausting drudgery.
Nitsan and Caroline edited the fruits of their labors into this e-course, which they now offer free, online, to save other parents hundreds of hours of labor and frustration and to make parenting easier and more effective.

4- Then the parent is offered 2 simple action plans as a practical focus towards applying the article or video immediately.
5- The course contains 52 resources arranged in a special sequence to insure success, beginning with actions that are easiest to apply, then progressing gradually towards the more challenging actions.

I am not making this up. My children really do love raw vegetables.

The dip is the key. That is how I got my kids hooked on eating raw vegetables and eating a lot of them.
