“The best thing about my parent coaching was Kim helping me understand that it was OK for me to feel the way I feel, to not feel ashamed of or hide those feelings. As a result things are a lot easier with the children, I’m much better able to recognise what I need and tell them how I feel without blaming anyone or trying to change them. Consequently they seem to have realised that I have feelings too and now my two teenagers describe our relationship as ‘cool’!”.
