Shaina <\/span>Fulwider<\/span> and her husband, Winston, suddenly became parents in 2013, after starting their family through kinship foster care with their older son, <\/span>Wazzie<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe were new to parenting,\u201d said <\/span>Fulwider<\/span>. \u201cI got <\/span>Wazzie<\/span> when I was 19. I babysat my entire life, but parenting was different. My husband had no prior experience with children whatsoever.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Living in the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, they decided to take a parenting class from the Salt River Early Childhood Education Center\u2019s Wish Parent Education program, which is funded by the First Things First Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community Region<\/a>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted to change and break the cycle of how I was raised,\u201d said <\/span>Fulwider<\/span>. \u201cI needed to stop yelling. We needed to upgrade our parenting skills.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Through the Conscious Discipline\u00ae parenting class, parents learned about early childhood development and how to engage and be sensitive to their children\u2019s feelings and perspectives. When disciplining, <\/span>Fulwider<\/span> was encouraged to give an explanation for why a behavior is not acceptable or dangerous. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I got <\/span>Wazzie<\/span>, he\u2019s a child, so I think I know better than him,\u201d said <\/span>Fulwider<\/span>. \u201cI didn\u2019t really consider his part. The class taught me to be more thoughtful about how I talk to him and about how my words will affect him.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

In the following years, the couple adopted <\/span>Wazzie<\/span> and his young sister, Genesis and brother, Kaden. The parents now use the same kind of engagement and discipline for the two young children. <\/span>Wazzie<\/span> is now helping out with his younger brother and sister. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHe understands what I tell him,\u201d said <\/span>Fulwider<\/span>. \u201cI can hear him in the other room talking to his sister and telling her the reasons why she shouldn\u2019t jump on the bed. Right there, he\u2019s teaching his sister.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Fulwider<\/span> is also putting into practice new ways to engage her children. It\u2019s helped to improve the family\u2019s communication with each other. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAfter we took the class, we really started talking more, sitting with each other, reading books, trying to understand each other and communicate,\u201d said <\/span>Fulwider<\/span>. \u201cWe pay attention to them more. Before it was like they came home, we\u2019d let them watch a movie, then eat dinner and go to bed. Now, we read a book every night. We sit at the table and talk to each other about each other\u2019s day. When we watch a movie, we talk about the movie as we are watching it. We have a full-on conversation. Before, it was like, ‘be quiet and don\u2019t talk.’ Now, there is definitely more communication, more attention.”<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
