Peaceful Parenting & Positive Discipline

Ask and you shall receive my friends! After posting on Facebook this morning that Louie & I attended a seminar on Peaceful Parenting last night at Cintas, I received about a dozen comments or emails asking to share the resources from the talk.  I thought this would be the easiest way to get them all in one place.  So - here you go. (We've been following these philosophies since Josie was a wee little thing, with great success and we highly recommend checking this stuff out!) Enjoy!
