This is what parents say all the time when they come to see Diane Moore at her private counseling practice in Vancouver.

From baby to toddler, tween to teen, author and certified family life counselor Diane Moore mentors parents through every stage of their children's life. Moore teaches parents how to be pack leader on issues like bedtime, lying, bullying, obedience, dating, devotions and more.

When you're working with people, you have to learn how to negotiate life. She suggests that parents teach their children at this stage the concept of grace.

Christmas is about wonder. We don't want to miss the Christmas of wonder.
