Welcome to my website! My name is Pamela Gehlert. I am an intentional author and educator. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, as well as rollerblading, skiing, hiking, and travelling. As a mother of three children, I can easily relate to the multitude of factors that contribute to one's parenting journey. While raising my children, I created The 5 Penny System. This approach focuses upon helping parents raise self-regulated and resilient children. It is supported by scientific research, academic experience, and real-life experiences. The 5 Penny System encourages a positive parent-child connection, where families grow together. In essence, I am a consistent advocate for families and parents aiming to enhance their current parenting practices. Feel free to contact me via email should you wish to ask questions, leave a comment or inquire about The 5 Penny System.

Do you want to be an effective parent?
The Five Penny System is a steadfast approach to support parents in delivering responses that will build resiliency, self-monitoring, independence and a strong communication base with their child. Essentially, the child starts their day with five pennies. The amount fluctuates based upon their choices and strives towards self-regulation. By working alongside one's child, hope and affirmation are born, as well as intrinsic motivation. This is a gradual acclimation towards one's true sense of self and weaves into the popular ideologies of Maslow and Ungar. My goal is to provide parents with a reliable and flexible approach that leads towards an optimistic outlook for both parent and child.

For any parent looking for a way to guide and support their child(ren) in developing self-discipline and resilience, The 5 Penny System presented by Ms. Gehlert is a ‘must’ for consideration. It provides a practical means for a parent to help manage situations towards more positive outcomes, and an opportunity for the child to make choices that lead to those outcomes, as the child learns to develop responsibility towards their own personal development.
