Helped us recognise that we are not alone
by Rose McGowan | February 10, 2026
NVR is not a marathon nor is it a sprint. It is a lifelong change in parenting approach. It provides strategies and tools for the long term. Allowing ourselves to let some things go seemed alien at first, but we have seen a huge benefit. Knowing that engaging support is encouraged has helped us recognise that we are not alone.
Do not give up when you have a blip or progress seems slow. In reflecting on when things have gone “back to type” we have seen where we have gone wrong, forgiven ourselves and re-set. We are still resisting the behaviour from a calm place.
We would definitely recommend NVR. It has had a positive effect on the number and type of “conflicts” within the home and elsewhere. We are more tolerant and calmer and whilst we expect the Honeymoon period (if there is one) to end we think the techniques always serve.
