March is Parenting Month, and because parents like to be involved in understanding their children's development, behavior and emotions, a local class is being offered to help parents learn to release stress and tensions.
Called STEP classes (Systematic Training for Effective Parenting), they offer parents, guardians, grandparents and caretakers a realistic approach to meeting the challenges of children today. Through the support groups, persons become actively involved in discussing common concerns and learning specific child-training techniques.
