“COPING WITH TOXIC
PARENTS"
will provide you with practical,
effective strategies to use
IN
YOUR OWN SELF DEFENCE
I know these strategies
work
because they worked for me. Early
in my teaching career I was
a
teacher who always wanted to
please and co-operate
with
parents, principals and fellow
teachers. As a result I was used and verbally abused by
people inside and outside education. I wanted it to stop so I
researched the topic of assertiveness thoroughly and applied
what I learned to my own
life.
The results of my research are
on my audio
CD/cassette. NO LONGER do I have trouble saying
no or expressing an
opposing
opinion or CHALLENGING OTHERS WHEN
THEY TRY TO PUT ME DOWN
OR
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ME!
Remember co-operation is great. Manipulation and
bullying isn’t.
The nice thing about it is that YOU can assert yourself
without losing friends on staff or the respect of the parents you
serve. IT'S ALL IN HOW YOU DO IT.
