For Parents Looking to Form
A Healthy Parent-Child Relationship
“Connective Parenting Reveals a Counterintuitive Approach to Raising Strong, Confident and Responsible Adults without Yelling or Making Threats So You Can Start Living a Calm And Stress-Free Life”
While also helping you let go of old habits that distance you from your kids, and raise them with self-confidence and resilience.
Look, here’s the truth…
As a parent, you want to raise happy, healthy and respectful children…
But a lot of times you find yourself thinking your efforts are falling short when your kids seem not to listen to you or resist your attempts to guide them…
Which makes them question your authority, and you end up criticizing and blaming in an attempt to get them to listen.
But this leads to less face to face interactions and jarring changes in their attitude…
Which creates constant conflicts and barriers that disrupt communication…
Meaning you’re left with only 2 options…
Either start yelling and threatening them in a desperate attempt to get them to do what you want…
Only to get your buttons pushed even more…
Or you can make a slight pivot away from the trendy parenting techniques that got you where you started…
And let yourself be blown away by how responsible your kids can be in their decision making…
While also raising them in a way that brings you and your family lasting joy.
But You Have Tried Everything To Get Them To Stop Pushing Your Buttons…
You tried building a deeper connection with your child by spending more time together only to be pushed away…
You tried putting an end to all the screaming…
You tried all the “new” forms of parenting that promised your child would listen to you…
But no matter the effort…
You’re still here…
Back at square one…
In search of a magic wand that will get them to willingly cooperate.
And now when all hope seems lost…
You revert back to traditional methods to discipline your kids.
How Long before Those Methods Completely Disconnect You from Your Kids?
And as parents…
The last thing we want is to push them away from us.
We don’t want them to feel like we don’t understand.
All we really try to do is guide them to become responsible, loving adults who contribute to society…
To become the people who will have a positive impact in this world…
To become the ones who can stand up for themselves…
And not let anyone influence them negatively.
But why can’t we make them listen to us?
Why can’t we make them understand that we only want the best for them?
Why can’t we help them make better decisions?
And save them from becoming people who can’t support themselves and those they love.
You see…
We always tend to act in the moment and let our impulses get the better of us…
Which makes us behave carelessly towards our little ones…
And even though we only want the best for them…
We end up communicating the wrong message, just because we react instead of respond.
But I’ve Been through the Same Situation As You with My Daughter and I Never Lost Hope…
I was threatening her because it seemed the easiest way to get her to do what I wanted…
I was punishing her because I thought it was the only method to stop her inappropriate behavior…
I was yelling because it seemed like the only technique to help me regain control…
But she kept bringing me to my knees…
Pushing my buttons…
And reminding me that I had to take responsibility for myself…
Until I finally realized that I couldn’t blame or punish her…
Or she would punish me back.
I had to find a different way – for her.
And so I never lost hope…
Deep down inside me, I knew there was a better way.
One that would allow me to connect deeply with her…
One that would help me raise her to find her true potential…
One that would allow me to see her as who she is and not as who I wanted her to be…
One that would allow me to get control over my buttons…
One that would give me the chance to relax from all the stress …
And allow my family to have more peace…
Away from threats, screams and punishments.
And So I Developed Connective Parenting which Allowed Me to Form a Healthy Relationship with Her and Raise Her to Become a Responsible Adult…
It wasn’t easy…
I had to go through a whole lot of trial and error…
And a lot of testing to understand how to defuse my buttons so we could listen to each other…
But in the end…
I found just what she and I both needed to have a fulfilling, mutually respectful and long lasting relationship.
I learned how to handle tricky situations, without even needing to raise my voice or use threats…
And got her to become the adult she needed to be…
One who I respect and admire.
And Right Now I’m Going to Show You
Exactly How I Did It
While everyone was seeking out various methods of parenting and testing many things at once…
I used common sense to raise her exactly how I always wanted to…
I taught her to keep herself accountable for her actions…
Showed her how to be respectful and kind…
Helped her identify appropriate behaviors from the world around her…
And got her to contribute to the world from a strong foundation of self-confidence.
But again…
It wasn’t a smooth journey.
I had countless sleepless nights…
Trying to find how to communicate my message without turning to yelling and threats.
And in the end…
I was able to sit back and watch her blossom—what a gift.
I Went Through The Ups And Downs

Connective Parenting has created healthy parent-child relationships that absolutely diffuse anger, threats and punishments…

Here’s What a Few Parents I’ve
Worked with Have Said…
“Bonnie has been the ray of sunshine that broke through the darkness that my family was sinking into deeper and deeper everyday. She has enlightened us with her common sense, wisdom, and above all, respect for each other. She has enabled our family of 3 teenagers to become civil again!” - mother of three teens
“Every family could use a little Bonnie now and then! My husband and I first came to Bonnie looking for help with our spirited child. Throughout our struggles and joys, Bonnie has helped us to understand the interpersonal dynamics in our family and given us useful practical advice. Bonnie brings empathy and intellectual depth to her practice and we have come to depend on her remarkable warmth and wisdom.” - mother of two
“My husband and I came to Bonnie Harris desperate. She was able to help us start from scratch and view our child as having a problem as opposed to being a problem. To be able to understand, sympathize, and help your child is a gift that every parent and child deserves.” - mother of three girls
You can’t possibly make up these results.
These are real parents.

“This has been the equivalent of a chiropractic realignment of my parenting spine. You hit it right on the head with “you didn’t mean he darn well better respect me, you meant, he darn well better obey me.” That’s the heart of it. And your articulating it moves the thought from residing in a less emotional place in me and into a more thoughtful one. I am grateful to you.” - mother of 14 and 16 yr. olds
“What I love about working with Bonnie is how she has helped us focus on shifting our mindset. I used to be very focused on what am I supposed to say? what am I supposed to do? What is the behavior I should be using in my parenting? But the mindset shift really helps the rest of that come a lot easier.” - Mom of two girls
