Me and my fellow team members plus our furry team mascots.

The revolutionary Mom Has Fun Parenting Method teaches you the secret to solving the core issue underlying nearly all parenting problems. Plus you stay sane and have fun in the process!

Dear Fellow Parent,

Just by reading this letter all the way through to the end, you'll get valuable insights and information that goes to the very heart of parenting. Plus you'll better understand why my parenting system is so effective and so much fun.

I promise, this is truly a different approach!

But first...    Take a short break and watch this unscripted video interview of Nicole as she candidly talks about happiness, mind chatter, curiosity and unconditional love. Nicole MacKenzie The Curious Child (This opens a new window.)

Use non-judgmental awareness and pure curiosity to create your own happy family team based on:
	coaching mutual respect honesty responsibility cooperation	appreciation sharing belonging kindness trust
	Why should Mom have FUN? What does that really mean? (1:31)

"It's time Mom has fun and here is how. May everyone embrace these brilliant concepts!" - Mark Victor Hansen Co-creator, #1 New York Times best selling series Chicken Soup for the Soul

A simple system, fun and easy for parents and kids alike!

Quit spending all your time and energy nagging or "correcting" misbehavior! This amazing parenting method teaches you how to put a system in place that will naturally grow the behavior you want.

Instead of putting a band-aid on the surface symptoms, you learn how to effectively handle the real issue - power struggles!

No big secret so far, right? But here's the truth...

Over 80% of existing parenting methods tell you: "Don't get emotionally engaged in power struggles with your children." But nobody really tells you exactly...

HOW not to get emotionally engaged... until NOW!!

We give you the map!

Just knowing what you want to do and where you want to go as a parent isn't enough! Just like any journey, you've got to be able to...

		See clearly where you are at any given moment
		Have an accurate map of the territory
		Have the right tools to get you there safely!

This is just one of the ways where the Mom Has Fun Parenting Method is totally unique. Using our map and the basic tools of non-judgmental awareness and curiosity, you learn how to navigate and be effective in the World of Emotions.

This is a vital skill for successful parenting, since it is within this emotional world that all power-struggles are created and are played out.

World of Sensation and Experience
	We give you the secret map to the uncharted world of emotions, plus effective tools to get you where you really want to go!
World of Emotions, Mind and Memory
What are these two different systems? (0:51)

Now, look more closely at just one of these emotional "pie slices". All of the emotions are related to each other in a specific way! Even those we call 'positive' and those we call 'negative'. Most people are either unaware of where they are on the emotional "map", or if they know, they don't have the tools to enable them to move to where they want to go!
	So what!?! Well... your child, by the tender age of 12-18 months, is an expert at navigating this terrain. And although they can't explain it in words, they know exactly how to use emotions to manipulate... how to push your emotional "buttons" and get what they want!

Get X-Ray Eyes!

When you can't see clearly the 'game' that's being played, you are doomed to continue to react emotionally, and the power-struggle simply ramps up to a higher level. But learning the Mom Has Fun Parenting Method is like getting x-ray eyes that reveal clearly the mystery of your child's behavior!

With your new 'eyes' you can see clearly and even appreciate the previously hidden manipulation games. And more importantly, you can now keep from getting hooked into the power-struggle game! You can then respond effectively to everyday parent/child interactions... stress-free and while having fun!

  Soap-Box Warning ----------

I'm going to get on my "soap-box" for just a minute here -- I simply can NOT ignore a report that I just read. It clearly reveals...

...the SHOCKING truth for parents in the USA or UK!

A comprehensive February 2007 study by UNICEF (the United Nations Childrens Fund) reported on the overall well-being of children and teens in 21 of the most advanced countries on the planet. They say...

"The true measure of a nation's standing
is how well it attends to its children...
their sense of being loved, valued, and included
in the families and societies into which they are born."

Would you like to know where the USA and the UK ranked?

You guessed it... at the very BOTTOM of the list! Below all the European countries in the study... BELOW Hungary, Poland, and the Czech Republic!! With all of our material wealth, gadgets, organized activities and opportunities, we are clearly FAILING our children in the area where they need us the most... in their sense of being loved, valued, and included! This is loud wake-up call for all parents!

(Although I am Swiss, I say "we" here and am not pointing a finger at "you". My husband is from the USA and we all live there 6 months a year. But I am truly passionate about this -- we can and must do better!)

---------- OK, end of Soap-Box

What Mom Has Fun Parenting Method is NOT!

First, let me quickly put a few common questions to rest.. .

	This is NOT a "faith" based method. It is inherently compatible with all faiths, or even no faith. We leave those teachings totally up to you.
	It is NOT important what country you live in or your cultural background. The method works for all parents, everywhere, as long as you apply it.
	It does NOT require a particular family structure. Both parents living together, separate households, single parent families, working parents, mixed 'step' families, multi-generational families, etc. -- all are OK!
	Your children do NOT have to be in a particular age range in order to get started. Although in my experience, the younger the child the easier it is (even babies!), it is never too late to start - even with teenagers.
	It is NOT is cookie-cutter approach where you have to treat every child alike or have exactly the same rules in your house as I do in mine! Please don't do that!! Once you understand how to set your rules and how to enforce them, you set up exactly what you want for your unique household!
	It does NOT matter if your child is a certified genius or has severe learning disabilities. I have taught parents of children with a full range of abilities/disabilities, and it works for everyone. When you apply the method, you will see dramatic improvement in your child's behavior, no matter what.
	It does NOT even require that you be a parent! You can effectively use the method if you are a teacher, a caregiver, or even if you just interact with kids frequently (Grandparent, babysitter, teacher, kids are 'customers' in your business, etc.)
	And most importantly, it does NOT require you to 'sacrifice' your own wants and needs, or make your child's interests be the total focus of your life! In fact, we will teach you the opposite -- how to get more of what you want at home!

Why the heck should you listen to me?

I had my first child over 18 years ago. Before that, my husband and I developed a unique learning method that reliably takes people to a sense of satisfaction, fulfillment, and brings out their innate genius. But after I held my first child, I realized that there was no comparable method for training kids! And there was certainly no method for training parents to train their kids! That's what became my personal quest.

A friend of mine said, "Nicole, you've got over 80 years of personal experience raising kids." "I'm not that old!", I protested. Then she explained... since I've got 6 kids (ages 5 to 18), that's how many 'kid/years' I've got into perfecting these parenting tools. So I now call it 80 years of day-in/day-out, on-the-job research!

I confess... I'm NOT a "natural" mother!

You know the type, they can do it all without thinking - just "naturally"! Well, not me... I admit I was totally clueless when faced with the daunting task of raising just one child, and I wanted lots!

So, I read every parenting book I could get my hands on and turned my family into a "research project". I watched to see what really worked and what didn't work when it comes to raising kids. I took loads of notes and kept refining and simplifying every tool, every technique.

And since I wasn't a "natural" mother, I had to constantly look more deeply into every situation to discover what was really going on. Plus, in order to teach other parents, I was forced to make everything clear and understandable to other "not natural" parents!

Now, I've been teaching my parenting classes for 17 years. My method has been thoroughly "field-tested" by thousands of parents and kids from all walks of life, from all over the world.

I know the Mom Has Fun Parenting Method works for every parent that applies it. And I absolutely guarantee that it can work for you!

The truth about giving, giving, giving... (1:23)

More parenting secrets you'll learn:

• That it's OK for Mom and Dad to have different household rules.
• That kids really love for you to set rules and boundaries for them.
• How judging right/wrong or good/bad traps you in a hidden parenting pitfall.
• Why you can't raise today's kids the same way your parents raised you.
• How discipline builds (and punishment destroys) your child's confidence and self-esteem.
• How to nurture your kids spirit, bring out their genius, and unlock their full potential - without spoiling them!
• How to increase your child's self-esteem, self-awareness, and self confidence.
• How to raise your children to be curious, considerate, enthusiastic, responsible, and eager to contribute.
• How to honor your own needs as a parent and avoid feelings of guilt and sacrifice.
• Why Mom and Dad having fun is not an option - it's essential to being an effective parent!

Discipline not punishment; Coaching not control

These are the twin pillars of the Mom Has Fun Parenting Method. Of course every good parent wants to coach their kids and teach them discipline. And nobody these days really wants to punish and control their kids. But the tough question is... exactly what is the difference and how do you tell one from the other?

Surprisingly... it's not so much what you do as it is
how you do it that makes the critical difference!

We teach you how to see that critical difference. You learn how to recognize when you've fallen into the pitfall of punishment and control, and we give you tools to help get you back out!

You learn exactly how to hold your child accountable for their behavior and teach them responsibility... without emotional engagement, judgment, blame or punishment.

What is the difference between discipline and punishment? (2:22)

Focusing on problems drains the joy from parenting!

At the very heart of what every parent naturally wants is a deep desire for their child to have a wonderful life -- happy, fulfilled, joyous relationships and reaching their own unique highest potential. Unfortunately, it's all too easy to loose sight of that desire while focused on correcting everyday behavior 'problems'.

Think for a second about a baby learning to walk... everytime they attempt to walk and fall down, we are thrilled and joyfully encourage them. We try to make it as easy as possible for them to learn, but we know it is inevitable that this is something they must do for themselves and there will be a few bumps, bruises and cries in the process.

With Mom Has Fun Parenting you learn:

• how to see your child's use of emotions as just another natural learning process instead of a 'problem' to be fixed
• how to effectively coach your child in this essential learning process
• how to make it as easy as possible for your child to learn the world of emotions
• how to stay in appreciation and compassion for your child instead of getting 'hooked' into their process
• how to shift the family focus from the 'problems' that you don't want to the 'results' that you do want

Automatically unlock your child's full potential!

Another amazing thing happens when you make that shift from focusing on your child's misbehaviors to focusing on their brilliance, changing your role from 'policeman' to respected coach...

What your child really begins to learn is what's called "Emotional Intelligence" (also sometimes called EQ or EI). Emotional Intelligence gives your children long lasting benefits that serve them well throughout their adult lives!

Studies have shown that...

Emotional Intelligence is by far the single strongest
predictor of future adult success in all aspects of life.

Emotional Intelligence is much more important than IQ!

And what's really exciting is that Emotional Intelligence is not fixed at birth -- it is something your child can learn and you can teach!

This means that with one basic approach - the Mom Has Fun Parenting Method - you can...
	have more peace, harmony, cooperation, joy in your family NOW!
	and simultaneously...
	give your child the essential skills they need for FUTURE success!

Look at this list of just a few of the characteristics
of people having high emotional intelligence...

Do you recognize these as the personality traits of highly successful people? When your child has these, then they truly have the most valuable gifts of all... enabling them to naturally rise to the top of whatever career they choose in the future!

From whining and tantrums to future world leaders?

Whew, I know... I've taken this conversation on quite a long journey and I greatly appreciate you sticking with me. But I've done so on purpose. Here's why...

You may have come here just looking for a quick way to stop your child's tantrums, or reduce their whining, or to get them to take out the trash without the surly back-talk and attitude. And after reading this far, if that's all you really want for your family, then what I offer isn't it!

But if you truly want the best possible life for your kids AND a dramatic shift in the quality of your family home life right now, then this is it!

I've also tried to give you a glimpse underneath... to the very core of parenting and to show you more of what's really at stake -- not just for your children, but for children everywhere. And from my experience, when parents focus on and shift the core issues, the surface symptoms resolve themselves naturally.

Remember that UNICEF study I mentioned earlier? In response to that, the UK’s National Family and Parenting Institute said this,

"We need a major cultural shift in how we view our children."

I totally agree, and add that "we" must include all parents everywhere!

But HOW do we shift how we view our children?

The quote above says it clearly... we first need to 'unlearn'. And with regards to parenting, that means unlearning our own unconscious parenting habits and behaviors, which we most likely learned from our own parents!

That's exactly why -- after hearing from the parents that read my book and took my 1-day classes -- I developed...

A slow, easy, step-by-step approach
to making lasting parenting changes

   Mom Has Fun 120-Day Home Study Course  

You just can't expect yourself to change overnight

I'd love to be able to wave a magic wand and tell you that tomorrow you'll wake up with all your parenting problems permanently "solved" - no more power-struggles and the whole family will be blissfully happy forever. But of course, that's not true.

Quick-fix tools are great and I have quite a few of them in my parenting toolkit. But although having good parenting tools is important, they aren't that effective if you're not also dealing with the core. The more important task is to change the underlying, unconscious, habitual parenting patterns.

Here's why...

Most of us learned how to parent from watching and experiencing our own parents while we were children. Regardless of whether or not we presently agree with our parent's parenting style, it is literally programmed into us.

So now, as parents ourselves, it's easy to "go on automatic" and fall into the same parenting pattern our parents used. In fact, it's so automatic and so ingrained, that we often can't even see it ourselves!

Here's a story that I think will help you understand... Banishing the 'milk-monster' That's Mick, my loving and usually good-natured husband. But when he was growing up, at his house it was a 'crime' to spill the milk. His Mom always got very mad and started yelling. Automatically and totally unconsciously, Mick took on that same pattern.

Can you guess what happened after Mick became a father with kids of his own? Yep... whenever one of our kids spilled their glass of milk, he got mad and started yelling loudly! This is more like how they saw him... their Dad instantly transformed into a raging milk-monster!

Yes, we can all laugh at it now, but I can tell you it was definitely not funny at the time. It was such an immediate and completely unconscious reaction that he could not even see the pattern!

But gradually, through observation and feedback without judgment, he was able to become more aware of his pattern, then to take a good look at it, and finally to have the opportunity to pause and choose before the unconscious habit took over.

He then could respond more appropriately to a spilled glass of milk... like asking the child to clean it up and to look and see how they could prevent such accidents in the future. Happily, this process permanently removed the milk-monster from visiting our house!

This is a simple example, but the big question is...

What is your buried milk-monster?
When do you go on automatic?

And if you can't even see it yourself, how
on earth can you be expected to change it?

The important first step is to realize this...

You are not 'bad' or 'wrong'...
You're doing the best that you can!

First, everybody gets emotionally engaged and sucked into power-struggles with their kids at times - it's inevitable! I still do too! So give yourself a break and relax about it.

Second, make a commitment to a process of slow and gradual change in your parenting style. In all honesty, changing your habitual parenting pattern requires time, patience, curiosity and a consistent effort.

Right about now you may be thinking...
"I'm desperate! I need help NOW! I can't wait for a long slow process!"

Of course, you are absolutely right. The good news is that the changes you want can be accomplished much faster and more easily than you may imagine. I've designed a step-by-step system that leads you gradually through the process of changing your own parenting pattern.

But more importantly...

You don't have to wait until you're done with
the whole thing to see results.
You can immediately see dramatic improvements!

The format of this unique home study course

Over the last 18 Years I've tried to figure out the most effective way to pass on the many years of research and development it took me to develop this system. I wanted to find the fastest and easiest way other parents could learn and benefit without having to do their own 18 years of research!

There's no way around it. Fundamental changes take time. I really want you to have awesome results with this system! But for that I need a bit more of your time so we can go slowly and take just one small step at a time. By having a 120-day home study course, you get a very satisfying way of learning that creates the greatest and most long lasting results.

Here's how the Mom Has Fun Parenting Home Study Course works...

• 100% electronically delivered via email - All you need is an email address!
• All lessons, tools, charts, etc. are delivered to your email inbox in the form of PDF files. If you don't have a PDF reader, it's easy to get one free.
• Designed specifically to integrate easily into your busy family life.
• The lessons and other materials are delivered to you gradually, all throughout the entire 120-day period. You learn slowly, one step at a time. Since you only have to learn a little bit of new information at each time, this helps you to not get overwhelmed and discouraged.
• 100% self paced - Take longer if you want! You can take as much time as you like with each lesson. Even go on vacation if you wish to, and move on with the lessons when you are ready. There is no pressure from a parenting group or meetings to attend. Yet, if you do the homework and finish the class, we promise that you'll be successful and will achieve amazing results!
• You will see immediate results from the first lesson, plus on-going results as you steadily progress through the lessons. Getting great results keeps you motivated and eager to learn more.
• 100% your decision on how much time to spend on each lesson and when to do your homework.
• Designed to help you stick with it. If you were to receive everything at once it would be all to easy to just glance at everything, set it aside and forget about it. When you know another lesson is coming, and it's divided into small easy steps, it is much easier learning and much more 'digestible'.
• 100% private - There is nothing you have to send us. It's your personal and private homework, so you can be ruthlessly honest!

• No extra charge for your parenting partner! Do it together and you'll not only become much better parents, it will deepen and strengthen your relationship with each other!

Is there any real reason to order right now?

YES!!

	The opportunity is at your fingertips right now. If you wait, it's way too easy to forget, to lose the web address, or get side-tracked completely.
	Every day you wait, your kids get a little bit older. Any undisciplined habits they have now get a bit more unconscious, a bit more deeply ingrained, a bit harder to reverse. You get a bit more tired, a bit more resigned, a bit more resentful. And those little "bits" just keep adding up day-by-day much faster than you realize. The methods I teach work for all kids of all ages, but from my experience, the younger they are, the easier it is for everyone.
	Do it for yourself... do it for your kids...
