Being an effective parent is one of the most
challenging and rewarding endeavors of life.
Good parenting doesn't eliminate problems and conflicts any
more than being a good employee automatically means you will
be given a raise and promoted. But the more you study, learn,
grow, and develop as a person, the more successful you will
be in every aspect of life. Employees are not just 9-to-5
people, but bring to the workplace the pressures of home and
family. Organizations providing opportunities for parents
to learn new skills for handling problems at home will have
more productive workers in the office.
The following workshops and keynote speeches by Judy H. Wright
have been developed over many years as a family
educator and parent. The techniques, methods,
and ideas are workable and practical. Please note
that the content and length can be tailored to
your needs.
"It was very impressive to our
participants that she (Judy) was willing to share stories
from her own family - both the triumphs and the tragedies.
She walks her talk and that makes her very believable
and inspiring."

WORKSHOPS &
PRESENTATIONS
Absent Parents And Left Behind Kids
- One out of every four American children lives in a single-parent home. While most single-parent homes are the result of divorce, many parents and grandparents are raising children alone for other reasons as well. Some may be alone due to the death of a spouse, military assignments, single parent adoption, incarceration, drug or alcohol abuse and a myriad of other reasons for a parent to be absent in the life of a child. This workshop is perfect for single family groups, military family support units, families of the incarcerated as well as those who have a loss by death or illness in their family.

The Left Out Child
- New research shows that all likeable children behave in certain ways. These skills are not in-born but can be taught and can be learned like any other skill. Children who feel like they have the ability to make friends tend to stay in school longer, make wiser decisions, and are generally all around happier individuals. This teleclass or workshop comes with a book or CD for a special price for participants.

Caution Without Fear - Safeguarding Children From Sexual Abuse And Finding Help If It Has Occurred
- Many people do not have a clear idea what constitutes sexual abuse and so are hesitant to discuss the issue with their children for fear of frightening them. We need to speak frankly about this danger and in the same manner as we do when talking about protecting ourselves from the dangers of fire and traffic safety. This workshop/teleclass qualifies for continuing education for teachers, medical personnel, law enforcement, child care providers and other mandatory reporters.

It's
Not My Fault! - Helping
your child be a non-blamer. If it is always
someone else's fault, we need to examine
why the child is so eager to shift the blame.
You'll also learn when lying has passed
being an easy way to get out of trouble
and into a dangerous pattern that can harm
relationships and the ability to know the
truth.

The Power of Encouraging Words
- Words can be deadly weapons or protective layers of love. Words, thoughts and expressions send out a vibration into the universe. What we say and think about we bring about, and we create our own reality, whether pleasant or unpleasant. This tele-class or workshop comes with a workbook that will assist the participant to take a look at the words used in daily communication, with ourselves and others. We will practice re-framing statements and requests in order to be more effective and happy in life.

Whose
Responsibility Is It?
- Helping our children (and employees) to
be inner directed as opposed to always waiting
for someone to tell them what to do is a
hard task. Sometimes, just the way a request
is worded can make the difference between
the person assuming "ownership"
or just slopping through the job.

Achieving
Intimacy in Marriage
- The main question here is how would I
like to be married to me? We learn the building
blocks of intimacy and recognize that love
is a verb and verbs are active. Small changes
on a daily basis can elevate an "ok"
relationship to a true partnership of joy.
