Problems with children and adolescents

Excessive media consumption, verbal and physical violence within families, absence from school or anxiety and dependence. The challenges that go along with raising children are manifold. The concept of "New Authority" offers answers in difficult situations. It teaches parents to deal with the destructive or self-destructive behavior of their children in a better way. Parents develop an attitude characterized by clarity and presence that will minimize confrontation. By strengthening and empowering the parents, family conflicts are contained and continuous escalation is prevented. If problems still get out of hand, non-violent interventions lead to an improvement in family dynamics. Parents identify alternatives to firmly established behaviors and learn to escape from recurring escalating processes. "New Authority" paves the way for a new and more harmonious family life.
