Dr. Jane Nelsen is a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and author or co-author of 18 books, including Positive Discipline, Raising Self-Reliant Children in a Self-Indulgent World, Serenity, and 12 other books in the Positive Discipline Series. Her latest book, Positive Discipline Parenting Tools, was written with two of her children, Mary Nelsen Tamborski and Brad Ainge, who share their examples of using PD. Jane earned her Ed.D. from the University of San Francisco, but her formal training has been secondary to her hands-on training as the mother of seven and grandmother of 22, and great-grandmother to 11. She now shares this wealth of knowledge and experience as a popular keynote speaker and workshop leader throughout the world.
