Holly McLean
I'm a certified parent educator, mom of nine, and author of
How to Train Your Child to Behave: The Ultimate Guide to Transforming Your Child's Behavior,
with 35 years experience working with children and families.
I started Parenting Dynamics because my heart was breaking for the parents I would see struggling every day to deal with their children's bad behavior. They have no idea what to do! But, all this stress and anxiety is SO unnecessary and I knew I could help.
I needed to find a way to communicate how to train children with practical solutions that go against the modern, progressive ideologies in the parenting world today that leave parents exhausted, frustrated and overwhelmed.
Thus, Parenting Dynamics was born and I became the Mommy Answer Lady! My hope and prayer for you and your family is to find practical, step by step solutions to your parenting questions that actually WORK and that will leave you and your family with a specific plans to solve those parenting dilemmas that are causing you so much stress.
