PARENTING #101 A New Neuro-Semantic Training

I don’t remember when or why I first did the “Parenting 101" introduction. I don’t even remember who asked for that. But once I did it, we discovered that it was a good introduction not only to Parenting, but to NLP and Neuro-Semantics. As it turns out, we in Neuro-Semantics have a lot to say about parenting. After all, when we train and/or coach, we inevitably come up against the results of good and bad parenting.

This was originally discovered in NLP, but there was very, very little that was applied to parenting. How parenting arose was mostly when some consequence of ineffective parenting created a pattern that persists in an adult which, in turn, blocks his effectiveness as an adult. In NLP that led to such patterns as Personal Change History, The Decision Destroyer, etc. Among common examples of parenting errors are the following statements which in Meta-States led to such patterns as Power Zone, the Pleasure Pattern, Meta-Stating Self, etc.
