Optimizing the parent-child relationship

• At the same time, its important that each
  parent considers their child the best and most
  wonderful one in the world, but this image must
  not be transmitted to the child in a wrong
  manner, in order to avoid the development of the
  sufficiency symptom.

Optimizing the parent-child relationship

• Through monthly meetings, the parents will be
  able to gain a more objective outlook on their
  children, to notice and appreciate the good
  parts, but also to identify the aspects that can
  be improved. Thus, parents will help their
  children get mobilized, increase their
  self-expectations and exceed their own limits.
