Carol Kranowitz interviewed by Heather T Forbes, LCSW on Dare To Love Parenting Podcast

February 24th, 2010
· by Heather Forbes · Filed Under: Podcasts

Join me and listen in to our Dare To Love Parenting Expert Podcast.
In this edition, I am honored and pleased to present to you Carol Stock Kranowitz, M.A.

Carol Kranowitz
Carol Stock Kranowitz

In this conversation, Carol Kranowitz, author of The Out-of-Sync Child and The Out-of-Sync Child Has Fun, discusses Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD). As a music, movement and drama teacher for 25 years, she observed many out-of-sync preschoolers. To help them become more competent in their work and play, she began to study sensory processing and sensory integration (”SI”) theory. She learned to help identify her young students’ needs and to steer them into early intervention.

Listen in as Carol explains what it means for a child to not have control over his own body and how to identify if
your child may be struggling with SPD. She gives real-life solutions to help your child exercise his neurological system to return back to a state of balance and regulation.

Parenting Beyond Consequences

Heather T Forbesby Heather T. Forbes, LCSW

author of  “Beyond Consequences, Logic, and Control” Volumes 1 & 2 and “Dare to Love”

Children need unconditional love and unconditional acceptance from their parents; we all know this and believe this.  However, do we ever stop to consider how so many of the traditional parenting techniques accepted in our culture work contrary to this primal goal?

Traditional parenting techniques that involve consequences, controlling directives, and punishment are fear-based and fear-driven.
