Course Outline
The "Love" in Love and Logic means that we love our kids so much that we are willing to set and enforce limits. It also means that we do so with sincere compassion and empathy.The "Logic" happens when we allow children to make decisions, affordable mistakes, and experience the natural or logical consequences. When we balance this with sincere empathy, they develop the logic that the quality of their life depends on the quality of their choices.
