“I am an older parent and a veteran elementary teacher. I thought I knew how to parent well…I don’t. Dalton’s parenting classes are helping me break old habits so that I can stop undermining my son by micromanaging him, and instead, raise a compassionate, responsible and independent man who will help shape a better society.”

Beth joined the group because she felt alone as a single Mom. She has a toddler and a five-year old. “It makes such a difference to have a place to talk to people. I know now I am not the only one who struggles.”
Parenting support is vital for all families. If you live in South King County, our weekly Auburn Circle of Parents group may be exactly what you are looking for.
The group is free – as is the supervised children’s group that operates at the same time. That too makes a huge difference. “If I had to pay for childcare to attend,” says Beth, “I couldn’t go.”

Positive Discipline 正向教養 (Bellevue)(in Mandarin Chinese)
**Update as of mid March: This Positive Discipline Course in Mandarin-Chinese has been postponed toward later of this FALL semester, estimated after late September, 2020, despite Tzu-Chi Academy Seattle School teaches “Traditional Mandarin-Chinese” and most Tzu-Chi student families are from Taiwan (versus to the “Simplified Chinese” what is been used solely in China, ), and the fact that none of the signed-up participants are from Wuhan, China. Please contact us if you or your client is interested in participating this workshop in this Spring quarter.**
**3/15/2020 特別通知: 配合杜絕本地疫情擴大風險(目前感染擴散主要集中於高齡高危族群, 諸如安養中心等場所) 之防疫考量, 本協會與慈濟中文學校決定將本次正向教養課程順延至預計今年秋季開學的下一個學年度, 敬請見諒, 共體時艱.
**1/31/2020 特別通知: 雖然慈濟中文學校是一所教授繁體中文的學校, 跟中國境內使用、教授之簡體中文多有差異, 且前來學習繁體中文的學生家長們也沒有從中國武漢移民到本地的; 配合時情與學生家長的意願, 以減少焦慮與恐慌, 本次中文正向教養課程延期到三月底以後開課. 如有相關報名問題, 請與我們聯絡, 聯絡方式如下段所示.**

Teachers, grandparents, caregivers, counselors, and others who live or work with children also find this course immensely helpful.
This course is co-sponsored by Tzu-Chi Academy Seattle, and is most helpful for people who live or work with children aged 2-12, and/or teens.
Course Duration: 2/8/2020 through 3/21/2020 (skip 2/22 for winter break)
