A supportive family life plays a vital role in maintaining recovery. The information, exercises, and dramatizations found in this multi-format program help parents who are recovering from alcoholism or drug addiction: -
- recognize the impact our substance abuse had on our children
- understand and respond sensitively to the feelings their children may have toward them
- develop skills to rebuild trust
- learn ways to nurture through basic family organization and honor family traditions
- #49376–Handling Anger
Angry confrontations often block parents’ progress to rebuild family life during recovery. These materials help recovering chemically dependent parents:- learn how to “name and tame” their anger before venting it on their children
- understand how to prevent angry exchanges by taking care of their own and their children’s basic needs
- develop skills to deal effectively with their children’s anger or other strong emotions
- learn how to communicate anger clearly and respectfully
- #49375–Setting Rules and Limits
Re-assuming parental responsibility once they achieve sobriety presents a dramatic change that their children may not welcome and parents may be ill-equipped to handle. The information in this multi-format program helps parents who are recovering from substance abuse:- understand what limits are and how to set them jointly with their children
- learn how to establish consequences, and determine when and how to enforce them
- define their own personal limits and be good role models for their children
- use family meetings and contracts © 1995. $99.00 each or $297.00 for all 3 programs + FREE SHIPPING AND HANDLING
