Come hear Nicholeen get real about what is happening in the world today and why we deeply need social skills.

Here are some favorite quotes by Nicholeen from this presentation:

“Peer interaction in a social setting is a learning experience to be discussed later with the trainer. It's not experience itself.”

“Speaking the truth is the weapon the world needs to heal.”

This exclusive audio seminar has previously only been available to members of the TSG Support Group. It details the 5 Key Characteristics of raising and becoming a joyful adult.  Many of you have heard Nicholeen say:

I am not making perfect children; they don't exist.  I am making joyful adults who know what their mission in life is and can't wait to fight for it and have a solid relationship with God and family.

While teaching your children and yourself the principles of self-government is a big part of the process towards becoming joyful, there is more to it. Listen to this five-part audio seminar to better understand how you and your children can prepare to be joyful adults and better live your missions in life.

Are you an effective parent?  Are you causing you children more harm than good? These are questions that all conscientious parents ask themselves. In a groundbreaking class, Nicholeen Peck discusses popular forms of parenting throughout the ages and analyzes the positives and negatives of common parenting styles.  Armed with years of experience raising children from varied backgrounds, Nicholeen illustrates some of the pitfalls of modern parenting styles and gives detailed answers on how to solve common issues.

This audio class is designed to help families make a quick shift in their home culture so that they can more easily implement the Teaching Self-Government principles.  In this class, Nicholeen Peck talks about how to improve a floundering culture at home in just 15 minutes a week!

Nicholeen describes — in her candid, storytelling way — how she has transformed her home into a Leadership Training environment.  She goes through her daily schedule and shares vital principles for raising assertive, leadership-minded children.

In a new class given to a live audience, Nicholeen Peck discusses how to get your children ready for life by teaching obedience as part of Homeschool.  Being able to be obedient is the first and fundamental building block of Self-government, especially in an education setting.  If you long to have your children live up to their potential, or to just get their math done, this class is a must for the homeschooling parent, whether new or veteran.

This class teaches parents how to create habits of effective communication at home instead of getting caught in an efficiency trap.

In this class, Nicholeen says that when you have an "Urgency Addiction," it means that you try to make everything so urgent by being so efficient, that you stop being effective.

This class teaches parents how to create habits of effective communication at home instead of being trapped in efficiency.

Is your home in crisis? Do your children never do what they are told? Do you find yourself completely overwhelmed and hating to interact with your children? Do your children treat you with disrespect and cause contention at home? Are you out of control of your emotions as a parent too? If any of these descriptions sound like your house, then you might be in crisis and you will definitely benefit from reading this book. It is written for you. This book is also written for people who don‘t want to ever have a home like I have described above and for parents who want to have an effectively communicating family right from the very beginning of parenthood.

Do the popular parenting methods of today really work? Do they really teach us how to raise children well so that this generation of children become self-governing, responsible, happy adults?

Nicholeen examines popular parenting methods and the long-term results we can expect them to produce in our kids. She then invites the readers to start a parenting revolution in their own home, returning to the best parenting methods... methods that buck the popular parenting styles and restore our families and homes to places where children are trained to be responsible and self-governing.

The second edition is about twice as much content as the first edition!

Is your home school feeling lack-luster, boring or ... dead? Have you ever wondered what's next for your children's education? Fear not! Nicholeen Peck and Teaching Self Government have created the perfect class for you.  These concerns and many others are discussed in a series of classes designed specifically for you: The Home School Helper Series.

Roles. They define our rights, obligations, responsibilities, beliefs, and even who we are. How well do we each understand our respective roles? How do we teach our children about proper roles? How would the problems children and parents face change if they better understood roles? This audiobook makes roles easier to understand, and it shows how to strengthen roles and empower ourselves and those we live and work with to reach our full potentials.

When my oldest child was four years old, I decided that he needed to be home-schooled.  At this point, I started studying education and models for learning environments.  I read every home school book and article I could get my hands on, because I wasn't sure what teaching a home was supposed to look like or what principles to follow.  How was I going to teach math?  I have found that most parents who choose to home-school go through this same process.  And I have found that most parents, including myself, get the most help by talking to someone who has already attained success.

The Power of Calm: an hour-long audio class by Nicholeen.

"When I go speak to people around the country about the style of parenting I live in my home and the family culture I am passionate about, one of the biggest responses I get is, 'I think I need self-government myself before I can teach it to my children.'

This is so true! It is hard to stay calm when you are under pressure and dealing with the stresses of raising children and living in our fast-paced world.

This is a mini-class that was created on a Support Call.

May the lessons, joy and blessings of Christmas linger with your family all year long!

This is an amazing class by Nicholeen where she connects, in her unique perspective, how we are made of parts: heart, body and mind.  This class talks about how you can train your heart to rule over your body, instead of becoming victim to the emotional reactions that put us in bondage and misery.

In a follow up to her popular adult class "Training the Heart," Nicholeen Peck has released a version designed especially for the youth!  In her slightly rambunctious style, Nicholeen conveys the critical message of training yourself to listen the voice of truth in each of us, instead of succumbing to our emotions or relying on the logic of others.  In a world where there are so many distracting voices, this class is a must have for all youth, no matter the age.

Note: this class is given in front of a live audience, resulting in a slight loss in audio quality

Have you ever wondered why you just can't seem to click with your child's personality?  In this class, Nicholeen Peck discusses key differences between Type-A and Type-B personalities.  When parents and children differ in their personality traits, their relationship can become fragile and should be handled with prudence.  This class provides some common sense solutions to help avoid serious relationship damage.  Nicholeen demonstrates how a Type-A parent should handle a Type-B child, and vice versa.

When I did foster care, I had a hard time remembering the new vocabulary I was required to use to help these troubled youth, so I made some cue cards to help myself.

When I first started teaching people the language of self-government and I saw them struggling to remember the new words, I remembered how much cue cards had helped me in the past.

For a few years now, we have offered cue cards for people to purchase at conferences and have had some basic downloads on the site as part of the Implementation Course.
