“Positive discipline” is topic of April 21 parent education lecture

BELLEVUE, WASH. – “Positive Discipline – Parenting from the Heart” will be the topic Thursday, April 21, as the Bellevue Community College Parent Education Program presents Dr. Jody McVittie, family physician and noted parent educator.

The lecture will take place at 7 p.m. in Carlson Theatre on BCC’s main campus (3000 Landerholm Circle S.E., Bellevue).

Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door.

Positive Discipline’s simple, respectful parenting tools lead to parenting more from the "heart" and less from the "hip." It shows how parents can discipline children with mutual respect, kindness and firmness without being either permissive or punitive.

Jody McVittie has been educating parents and teachers on the principles of Positive Discipline for almost 10 years. Before focusing entirely on parent and teacher education, McVittie spent 12 years working as a family physician.
