“This is the best thing that has ever happened to our family!” – Robert and Callie from San Diego

Over the past twenty years, John has been conducting two-day small-group Parent Retreats across the country (including Hawaii). During these events, which he calls “re-parenting workshops,” John helps parents properly understand and solve the problems they’re having with kids of all ages, especially problems with discipline. As the above attendee-feedback indicates, parents from all over the USA have been unanimous in praising the experience.
John will be doing a 3-day retreat on June 13, 14, and 16 (Thursday, Friday, Saturday) in his hometown of New Bern, North Carolina! Founded in 1710 by Swiss colonists, New Bern is one of the most historic towns in the Carolinas. It was there, in 1893, that Pepsi Cola (originally, Brad’s Drink) was invented by pharmacist Caleb Bradham. New Bern was the original capital of North Carolina and is home to the authentically restored, pre-Revolutionary War Governor’s Palace, Tryon Palace. Many of the homes in New Bern’s downtown historic district, including John and Willie’s, were built prior to the Civil War. History abounds in New Bern, but if you get tired of being a tourist, great beaches are only a 30-minute drive down Hwy 70.
The retreat will be held at the New Bern Golf and Country Club. The retreat is appropriate for parents of children of all ages. John is accepting no more than 20 participants (couples and single parents), ensuring that each and every parent or couple in attendance will receive plenty of individual attention.
The retreat price (below) includes a one-hour phone follow-up with John that can be exercised at any time.

On Friday, March 8, John will teach basic effective parenting principles, with an emphasis on effective discipline. Borrowing from Bill O’Reilly, John says, “Caution! The principles I teach on day one are not what mental health professionals have been telling parents for the past fifty years. For one thing, this stuff isn’t based on bogus psychological theory; it’s based on research-based fact. As such, it makes sense, it’s easy to put into practice, and best of all, it works!”
On Saturday, March 9, John will use lots of real-life anecdotes to demonstrate the “how-to” of the principles from day one. This second day will be “customized” to the needs of individual parents and parent couples in the group, and John will give plenty of opportunity for questions.
Friday, March 8:
8:30 to 9:00 am – Participants arrive for coffee and meet ‘n’ greet
9:00 to 4:00 pm – John’s presentation (with breaks and lunch on your own)
