My work (and this site) is devoted to sharing methods, tools and sample conversations that will help you stop reacting as you transform misbehavior into learning moments using a mindful authority.
You have the same fears and doubts all parents have,
but your integrity and beliefs have you searching

guide your kids through their challenges
Proactive Parenting doesn’t provide one-size-fits-all answers.
We honor the fact that you know your child better than anyone.
We offer powerful transformative solutions, methods, and sample conversations that shift and change as needed so they can guide you for years to come.

Sharon and Dr. Shefali talking parenting
“This has triggered a wonderful inner transformation for me on many levels. Big light-bulb for me is that we are here to TEACH, not reprimand with time-outs they don’t understand. I see every moment as a teaching opportunity because of you!”
Renee Taylor
“In an era when we all feel confused about ‘how to parent’ our children, Parent Educator Sharon Silver provides sensible, modern advice real parents can really use. It can be difficult to navigate the differing opinions of experts … [Sharon shows us that] time-out isn’t the only option.” z
Dr. Lynne Kenney, Author of The Family Coaching Method
“It’s really refreshing to get helpful tips that start with the change within us first. I find your insight really helpful and exactly what I am looking for.” Lani Wharton
“I can’t recommend Sharon and Proactive Parenting enough; nobody is talking about this stuff. Her insights are both practical and make so much sense.
Thanks you! Sonja Limone
“A glorious collection of parenting tips that moms can instantly use to help them raise good and caring kids.”
Michele Borba, Ed.D,
“I’ve seen sites like this before… they look like they offer great stuff, but give fluff or BS. I’m amazed at the immediate results with my child and myself. I’m in control… I don’t get emotional or upset. I now use situations as teachable moments, and my child totally responds.”
Erin from Oregon
“Sharon really does seem to see the entire relationship between parent and child in our interactions in a way that most authors and experts don’t. I think my entire parenting experience would have been easier if I had known about her work when my older one was younger.”
