The Love and Logic program has been very helpful to our family!   As parents of 3 children ages 4, 6, and 8, we found the information in the Love and Logic training to be immediately applicable and we noticed positive changes right away.  One aspect that we especially appreciate about Love and Logic is the emphasis on raising kids who are resourceful and responsible, not merely compliant.  As our oldest is moving into his "tween" years, we are again reminded of how soon he will be making important decisions for his own life, safety, well being and future.  Love and Logic orients parents toward a parenting strategy that is aimed at raising competent, responsible and self motivated kids.  From the moment our kids were born, we have experienced the joy of parenting three wonderful children.  However, we like all parents, have experienced times of exhaustion and frustration balancing life's demands for our family.  Love and Logic provided us with new skills and tools that are immensely helpful to us and to our kids!  As parents, and, as faith community leaders who work with many other families, we highly recommend this tool to any interested parent. 

Steve and Judy Osterhage do a fantastic job of facilitating Love and Logic training events which are fun and entertaining as well as exceptionally helpful.  As parents themselves, they can relate to the real world stresses and challenges that being a parent involves and offer examples and solutions to common problems from applied experience not just abstract "parenting theory."  Additionally, Judy's extensive background working with foster kids and parents provides a range of expertise and experience that can bring insight into a wide variety of specific issues parents may face.   The O's are readily available to offer post-training support, and to help offer suggestions and encouragements long after the training events.  They do so with tremendous energy and passion.  Family Fuel indeed!

I appreciated working with you and Judy given the balance of warmth and professionalism you convey. I felt confident and see it was not unfounded, that you would provide training to our church family in the area of parenting. You were eager to serve our church, so willing to adapt to our needs/interests as a unique group and went the extra mile in terms of being available. You presented the material and made yourself available during breaks and after the meetings in such a way that demonstrates your commitment to helping families for the long haul, not just to disseminate material and leave. This is a unique approach to educational seminars and underscores the integrity of your message.  I would not hesitate to engage your services in the future and wish you much luck as you care for families through Love and Logic.

My wife and I found the Love and Logic program very easy to use with our children.  Love and Logic is very intuitive and action oriented.  Not just a philosophical fluff.  Judy and Steve present the material in a fun atmosphere and are very accessible with after class and via email.
