Parents spend weeks and even months worrying over what name to choose for their child. They go to birthing classes and in some cases, consult an interior decorator to design the room for their child. But almost no parent spends ANY time thinking and planning about how to raise their child. Every parent knows what they want the end result to be - a child who is confident, assertive, happy and honest - but they don't spend any time working on creating the daily habits that lead to that end result.
Denny Strecker has been working with parents for over 23 years to improve their
skills in raising children. He teaches parents how to give their children the "Life Skills" that society expects, but that no one teaches.
Denny helps parents create a personalized "goal plan" and makes sure that they
understand the reasons "why" behind the "how". He teaches parents how to improve
their relationship with their children so everyone benefits.
