Etter Hanni & Heinz
Hanni and Heinz Etter, parents of 4 children and grandparents of 15 grandchildren, have been dealing with the issue of trust within the family for many years. Heinz was a primary and secondary school teacher as well as a remedial teacher. Hanni was also known as the horse whisperer because of her work with animals, and she used her talent to help difficult children recover. Together, Hanni and Heinz developed the pedagogy of trust "Educating with trust in families".
Have you ever seen a mother duck on the pond, turning around and quacking to the back: "Where are you? This way!" No? Well, why do the ducklings follow their mother?
The knowledge that they are lost without their mother is innate. The same goes for the mother duck's trust in her young. She knows that they will give their all to follow her.
In contrast, many parent-child relationships are characterized by mutual distrust and power struggles. Trust-based parenting can change this.
They have four grown-up children - two sons and two daughters - and now have fifteen grandchildren. From 1998 to 2004, you ran a special needs school with a riding school together. During this time, you formulated the basic features of the join-up concept and the pedagogy of trust and have continued to develop it ever since.
