Hi Guys,
Well, last week was quite interesting... I was working with 3 parents out of 6 and 3 of the parents missed the previous week lesson. It has been difficult to stress the flow of the program when the participating party skip weeks and jump back in to attempt to catch up. Unfortunately, there's no catch up available due to the format of the program and attempting to insert an hour of dialog into 5 minutes (of attempting the catch up process) is more challenging then the program itself.
Needless to say, I hope and pray that our efforts are somewhat received well and we have learned from this experience.

4 U 2 Know...
Hello Everyone,
Initially, I didn't know what to expect therefore, I decided to go over the materials at home, but when I started viewing the video I realized that I wasn't even close to being prepared because the video was very different from what's in hard copy...Now, I'm fully acclimated with the process.
My experience with the parents differs from week to week. The first week I had a very involved group of parents and the second week, they seem to lack communication in the practice set forth by the program. Also, with the exception of 1 parent... all the other adults in the group are related and from time to time I have to remind them about the rule of respecting while other speaks because they tend to discuss (amongst each other) non-SFP events during break sessions. Oh, Marigny's presence is a HUGE help for me...Thanks Lady :) Looking forward to week 3….

Welcome
Hello ladies:
Please use this Strengthening Family Program: 10-14 blog to capture your thoughts after facilitating a session. I believe we/you are learning as we go along, and I want us to document our learnings.
So, just take a few moments later on Tuesday evening or the next day or so and share what you're learning, and thinking. If we all share, we will create a fabulous learning community!
Thank you,
Phyllis
