Ann Aspey, Parent

I am able to enjoy my son again – he is no longer stressed and exhausted when he gets home. We are able to bond instead of fight over homework. He is starting to compliment himself instead of only criticizing himself. He is excited to share his interests with friends, and he has become more self-aware with his emotions.
