This is a rigorous training schedule. The course lasts for many years and the training is practiced almost every night. Participants are guaranteed to improve their Non-Verbal Communication Skills.
Ry and I have bought into this course. Here's a sample from Wed night's session. Ryan and I are tired, we are sitting at the dinner table eating gross leftovers. This whole conversation is directly recorded from a mere 3-4 minute sample of this course...
Camille: " Ry, how was your day?"
Ryan: "Good, what did you do today..."
Josiah: "Mama did you know I watched this movie...sooooo, there was this zebra and a lion so a zebra was like right here and he was like and there was this bridge thing and penguins were flying and then a lion was he passed a bush there was a lion in it the lion was creeping up on him which was his friend then once they came to the stop place the zebra looked around and the lion scared him. um and then there was this school and the school came out to came out, actually a whole crew of friends to do this stuff there was a lion zebra hippo giraffe which the giraffe didn't do it, but the other people did and they all took pictures of it and then what happens what happens next what happens ummm and then they were on a boat and they were all in boxes because they were getting taken back to their beach and i love their beach and thats where their zoo was and instead the driver of the boat got tied up because penguins were loose and the penguins were trying to scare them except they were trying
Kaila (wiggling her bum on the chair to the tune): "I like to move it move it, I like to Move it move it..."
Josiah: and ummm and then they got sent to this island where uggn and there was this place and they went inside it and there was this whole. crew of people and they were singing I like to move it move it...
Donovan: "AArgh! Mo (aka, more water)"
Kaila: "I like to move it move it, I like to Move it move it! They were all singing it, lets Dance it!! (jumps up and begins dancing around watching herself in the window reflection singing "move it move it")
Josiah: Can I tell you more yet? and then...and then there was this baby of little types of animals, actually let me tell you something, there were all types of creatures singing it...Like this
Josiah: (now dancing) "I like to move it move it..."
Kaila: (still dancing) "they were like, I like to move it move it...."
Josiah: "I like to move it move it.."
Kaila: "I like to diddo it diddo it..."
Ryan: "Come sit back down, and it's mommy and daddy's time to talk now..."
Josiah: and then and then and then there was this tree that could turn cotton candy on the tree and the lion could turn the cotton on and off on the tree, and thats as much as I know actually.
This course has done wonders for our non-verbal communication skills!! Ryan and I have gotten really good at desperate eye contact, exhausted head bobs, sympathetic grins, secretly plugging our ears for a moment in silence, sharing a moment of mutual amusement with suppressed laughter....

HA! Just listened to an expert on attachment on the same day the kids trained you guys.
This is what he said were the 4 important goals/processes to bring up children with healthy attachment in adulthood.
. Make the dialogue inclusive
. Recognize and repair Disruptions
. Upgrade the dialogue
. Be willing to actively engage and struggle
Looks like the kids have it down pat!!!
Hee Hee!!
