Parenting Wisely

Parenting Wisely (PW) is a parenting skills education system. The PW programs are designed to facilitate the learning of necessary skills for the healthy well-balanced raising of children from age 3 to 18. Proven to reduce problem behaviors and increase communication and family unity, PW offers well documented and tested programs that guarantee results.

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.

Unlike most parenting classes or trainings, the Parenting Wisely programs can be completed in as little as a two to three hour session. At their home computer, or any public internet ready computer, parents can go at their own speed as they learn in comfortable anonymity. Users feel no embarrassment or judgment, and without the stigma of typical parenting classes, parents are free to truly learn.

The easy to apply principles taught in this brief session are quickly learned and put to use. Results are seen immediately as parents try out the skills they have seen modeled for them.

Parenting Wisely is evidence-based and proven effective. Extensive research and clinical tests show that use of Parenting Wisely resulted in:

  • Increased knowledge & use of good parenting skills
  • A decrease in child behavior problems
  • Improved problem solving
  • Reduced spousal violence & violence toward their children
  • Program completion rates for parents ranged from 83%-95%.

Success of the program has earned it the ranking as a SAMHSA “Model Program” and an OJJDP “Exemplary Program” as well as many other honors and rankings.
