Active Parenting Publishers has provided research-based video education programs to parents and professionals since 1983. Our Story
The goal in Dr. Michael H Popkin founding Active Parenting Publishers(APP) was to apply state-of-the-art educational technology to the field of parenting education. The APP model is largely based upon the theories of Alfred Adler and Rudolf Dreikurs as it relates to
an “authoritative approach” to parenting as opposed to an “autocratic or permissive” approach. The first three years of the company were devoted to research and development, as Dr. Popkin’s vision of integrating video and group discussion into advanced education programs evolved. In June 1983, APP incorporated and introduced the Active Parenting Discussion Program (APDP), the world’s first video-based parenting education program. Delivered in just six 2-hour sessions, the program was highly successful. Following the success of APDP, APP went on to produce numerous video-based parenting curriculums, including those for families with young children, teens, and stepchildren, among others, in both English and Spanish language versions. In 2000, APP continued its pioneering tradition by launching the world’s first video-based online parenting class. This program combines video, reading, and group discussion—all administered online. APP products are distributed throughout the US as well as worldwide, including Canada, China, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, and Sweden. APP also conducts Leader Training Workshops (https://www.activeparenting.com/for-leaders/research-studies-tools-and-tests/leader-training-workshops/) and Trainings of Trainers (https://www.activeparenting.com/for-leaders/research-studies-tools-and-tests/training-of-trainers/) throughout the country to teach professionals and volunteers how to lead a group using the APP programs. Leader training is available all over the world via live classes, live webinars, and online leader training workshops. Today, APP continues to operate out of Marietta, Georgia, a town just northwest of Atlanta, providing quality education programs for parents, children, and teachers to schools, hospitals, social services organizations, churches, and the corporate market.

Program
Juneteenth (short for “June Nineteenth”) marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, TX in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. These quarter million enslaved people represented the last in the country to be told of their emancipation, giving Juneteenth its unique significance. The following December, slavery was to be abolished in the United States when the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution was ratified.
In 1866, free Texans began the first annual “Jubilee Day” celebration on June 19. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth honors the end of slavery in the United States. Initially, once the enslaved received this proclamation, they took part in parties, family reunions, barbecues, reading, and hosting various church services. They carried out actions they were once restricted from enjoying.
Juneteenth has impacted the narrative crafted on freedom, liberation, and legacy. The event that transpired on June 19, 1865, was not the beginning of Black people’s quest for freedom and our continued celebration of this holiday will ensure that we will never stop seeking freedom.

🔑Doc Pop’s 52 Weeks of Active Parenting – Week 35 – Character Talk: Alcohol and Other Drugs About 90% of kids today experiment with alcohol and other drugs. A lot of these kids eventually get addicted, killed, or just into a lot of trouble from this “pursuit of happiness.” Most parents who try to keep their kids away from these influences do so by threatening massive amounts of punishments if their kids become users or get caught experimenting. The trouble with this approach is that it wears off at about age 18 when the child leaves home. That’s one reason we see so many 18- to 24-year-olds going wild. A better approach is to use some discipline coupled with some persuasive talking. Doc Pop explains in this week’s video. #activeparenting, #charactertalk, #alcoholandotherdrugs, #parentstalktoteens, Parent Educators - Go to www.activeparenting.com for information about our video based parenting education programs or https://activeparenting.com/.../doc-pops-52-weeks-of.../ to order a copy of Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting.

Doc Pop’s 52 Weeks of Active Parenting – Week 34 – Act As a Filter for Your Child Our goal as filters for our children is to consider how their values, attitudes, feelings and behavior is affected by outside influences. Monitor their viewing habits. Listen to the lyrics of their music. Talk about wise friendship choices. Filter IN positive influences. Doc Pop explains in this week’s video. He also helps you to create a Media Awareness Week to monitor those outside influences. #filtersforchildren, #parenting, #activeparenting, #actasafilterforyourchild, #activeparents We are now offering to send along the weekly worksheets from Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting when you sign up to receive them in your in box!

Week 33 - Doc Pop’s 52 Weeks of Active Parenting - Value your child “as is”. Parents who constantly raise the bar on their children and act as if nothing is quite enough undermine their children’s self-esteem in ways that may not show up for years. There are three areas we can look at to improve how we can accept our child “as is”. They are separate worth from accomplishments, separate worth from misbehavior and appreciate your child’s uniqueness. Please take time to watch this important information as DocPop explains in this week’s video. #valueyourchildasis, #activeparentingleaders, #activeparents, #parentingeducation, #activeparenting, #acceptyourchild For more information on course programs go to: www.activeparenting.com We are now offering to send along the weekly worksheets from Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting when you sign up to receive them in your in box!

Week 31 of Doc Pop’s 52 Weeks of Active Parenting - Build On Strengths with the BANK Method - Encouragement is powerful stuff. When we pay attention and acknowledge our kids’ strengths and assets they usually continue to improve in these areas. But when we ignore them these strengths often diminish. The BANK method can help you use the power of encouragement to build your child’s strengths—whether it is a sports skill, academic skill, or character trait. You’ll want to watch this week’s video as Doc Pop explains the 5 step BANK method. #activeparenting, #parenting, #docpops52weeksofactiveparenting, #docpop, #BuildOnStrengthsBANKMethodofparenting, #buildonstrengths, #activeparentingleaders, #activeparents, #parentingeducation Parent Educators - Go to www.activeparenting.com for information about our video based parenting education programs or https://activeparenting.com/.../doc-pops-52-weeks-of.../ to order a copy of Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting.

However, parents who take a permissive approach to parenting, who act like doormats allowing their kids to walk all over them, often wind up with kids who are spoiled little sociopaths. The key to parenting in a democratic society is the concept of “freedom within limits.” Doc Pop explains in this week’s video. #activeparenting, #parenting, #docpops52weeksofactiveparenting, #docpop, #teachaskilltoyourchild, #teachingaskill, #activeparentingleaders, #activeparents, #parentingeducation Parent Educators - Go to www.activeparenting.com for information about our video based parenting education programs or https://activeparenting.com/.../doc-pops-52-weeks-of.../ to order a copy of Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting.

Make sure that your child is interested in learning the skill and that it is age appropriate. Doc Pop explains seven tips to help teaching your child a skill pay off in multiple ways!

Kids have also been known to throw a wide variety of tantrums either out of frustration or to just get their own way. In this era of zero tolerance for violence in school, the wise parent (and even the wiseguy parent who doesn’t want his child to get expelled from preschool) will take the time to teach his child how to manage his temper. A few basic family rules enforced with some consistent logical consequences are a good start.

The more you act angry, the more defiant she gets. The more she digs her heels in, the more you feel you’re going to blow your top! Sound familiar? This is a classic power struggle. The way out is to remove yourself from the fight. The renowned psychiatrist Rudolf Dreikurs had an almost foolproof method. Just take a deep breath and say these magic words: “I’m going to the bathroom.” Then walk to the nearest bathroom and stay there until you both calm down. You might keep a copy of this book in there, too, so that you can reread the sections on discipline and figure out how to use your temper constructively when you come out.

🔑Week 25 of Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting - Use a Positive "I" Message to Encourage Positive Behavior - When people of any age become discouraged, their behavior becomes less productive or even downright negative, and they may give up altogether. One sure way for you to discourage your kids is to ignore their positive efforts to improve. Their perspective becomes “Why bother?

Week 24 - Doc Pop's 52 Weeks of Active Parenting - FLAC: The Ultimate Discipline Method - Feelings, Limits, Alternative and Consequences - Use FLAC to reduce the FLACK. If you recognize by now that what we are after is building character and not blind obedience then you will be quick to see the brilliance (if I do say so myself) of the FLAC method. We have covered each part of FLAC in previous weeks, but now we can put them all together. Doc Pop explains how to pull together the skills you've learned in this week's video.

The goal in Dr. Michael H Popkin founding Active Parenting Publishers(APP) was to apply state-of-the-art educational technology to the field of parenting education. The APP model is largely based upon the theories of Alfred Adler and Rudolf Dreikurs as it relates to an “authoritative approach” to parenting as opposed to an “autocratic or permissive” approach.
The first three years of the company were devoted to research and development, as Dr. Popkin’s vision of integrating video and group discussion into advanced education programs evolved. In June 1983, APP incorporated and introduced the Active Parenting Discussion Program (APDP), the world’s first video-based parenting education program. Delivered in just six 2-hour sessions, the program was highly successful.
Following the success of APDP, APP went on to produce numerous video-based parenting curriculums, including those for families with young children, teens, and stepchildren, among others, in both English and Spanish language versions. In 2000, APP continued its pioneering tradition by launching the world’s first video-based online parenting class. This program combines video, reading, and group discussion—all administered online.
APP products are distributed throughout the US as well as worldwide, including Canada, China, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, and Sweden. APP also conducts Leader Training Workshops (https://www.activeparenting.com/for-leaders/research-studies-tools-and-tests/leader-training-workshops/) and Trainings of Trainers (https://www.activeparenting.com/for-leaders/research-studies-tools-and-tests/training-of-trainers/) throughout the country to teach professionals and volunteers how to lead a group using the APP programs. Leader training is available all over the world via live classes, live webinars, and online leader training workshops. Today, APP continues to operate out of Marietta, Georgia, a town just northwest of Atlanta, providing quality education programs for parents, children, and teachers to schools, hospitals, social services organizations, churches, and the corporate market.
