Parenting Without Pressure taught us how to keep our focus on the positives while dealing with inappropriate behavior.  It has made a huge difference in our home.
  -Mr. & Mrs. Thomas Painter.

Even though my husband and I dated for several years before marriage, Jack was totally unprepared for ‘step-fatherhood.’ He would nag, I would be defensive and daily the family fought. PWOP’s provided us with the tools to restore peace and provided our blended family with a format that really works.
