At Parenting Leader, we help parents who are tired of yelling, guilt, and daily power struggles. If you've ever gone to bed thinking, “I didn’t want to be that kind of parent,” you're not alone. And you're in the right place. Our most popular program, the No Yelling Challenge, has helped thousands of parents shift from constant frustration to calmer, more connected days with their kids. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about learning what actually works, especially in those tough moments when nothing seems to help. We offer simple, realistic tools for positive parenting that actually fit into your life. Whether you're raising a strong-willed toddler, a moody tween, or a child with ADHD, our parenting courses are designed to give you practical tips that you can use right away. Many of our users start with the No Yelling Challenge, but we also offer an ADHD Parenting Challenge for those facing more specific struggles. Both are filled with support, real talk, and doable strategies that don’t rely on punishments or lectures. We believe parenting should feel less like surviving and more like something you’re proud of.

I opened the program one night out of boredom. A few prompts later, I was writing about memories I hadn’t thought of in years. That single night changed how I see myself
It’s a scam
It’s a scam! I purchased the No-yelling course and immediately cancelled the monthly subscription. However they still charged me a month later for the subscription. The amount I was charged doesn’t even come close to what they are advertising and when I emailed them about it they refused to refund the money citing some bogus refund policy. They weren’t even authorized to charge me since I had already cancelled. In addition the No-Yelling course is a waste of time. It’s generic information and common sense. Ridiculous!
Scammers
Do not, ever ever, subscribe to this app/service. I subscriben for 28-day plan for 9.49 USD and just gotten billed on October 17th for 59.99 without requesting any additional plans or subscriptions. I did go to the app to cancel, and requested a refund through their contact form, but I think I will request a new card from my bank, based on others'exoerienced with cancelling and still getting billed.
Judgemental bunch of bigots
I enquired about this programme. Cue the over zealous emails for not signing up straight away. The emails were essentially stating I wanted to continue operating in a dysfunctional family, I had explosive reactions to my children, my children were practicing self-protection from their parent. What a load of nonsense. They don't know me or my family other than through a loaded questionnaire where the answers were prescriptive. Now using guilt techniques to promote their product. Based on these tactics and the terrible reviews on here, I wouldn't buy their product in a million years. Obviously more interested in selling then helping people.
If I could give zero stars I would
If I could give zero stars I would. I was charged 25 dollars instead of 9 because they add some services I didn’t sign up for. They refused to do any refund. Very sad.

Parenting Leader is a FRAUD!
This company is a complete FRAUD! DO NOT use them! My son has ADHD, so I am always interested in learning new techniques to help him manage. Parenting Leader advertised a 28-day challenge, that suggested they would have activities to implement and track the child's progress. So I signed up for the 28-day challenge (since it was only $10). When I signed up, I checked and double-checked to see if this would sign me up for an annual subscription. There was absolutely nothing stated about being renewed into any kind of subscription. Many other companies inform you that you must either cancel before the end of your trial period, or you will be automatically signed up for a monthly/annual subscription. The Parenting Leader website didn't say anything like that. So I thought I was safe signing up for the 28-day challenge.
Once I got into the app for the challenge, I was immediately disappointed. There were no activities or anything real to try implementing. It had daily lessons, which didn't say anything about ADHD that I didn't already know. You can find more detailed, helpful information about ADHD for FREE just by doing a simple Google search! Needless to say, I didn't finish the lessons in the 28-day challenge, since they were useless. I wasn't that upset, since I thought I had only wasted $10.
However at the end of the 28 days (which was 2 days ago), I was charged $63, which I'm assuming is the cost for a monthly subscription. I was not given any notice that I would be charged this, nor did I receive a receipt or any acknowledgement that I had been charged. Honest companies send you a reminder that your trial period is ending and that you need to cancel or you will be charged. Honest companies also send you an emailed receipt of your purchase/charge. Parenting Leader did NONE of these things! The only way I even knew about the charge was because I was checking my bank account for something else, and I saw the $63 charge from Parenting Leader.
I searched and searched for an effective way to contact Parenting Leader, but all they offer is an generic email address. There is no phone number (I've searched the internet and still can't find one) for them. So when I contacted Parenting Leader through their email, they send me an immediate email response saying that my subscription was cancelled that I wouldn't incur any further charges. As for a refund of my money, they said that I had to show proof that I had completed at least 7 consecutive days of lessons. They offered a 1 time exception and said I could get a 50% refund. However, when I emailed them further about this situation, they stopped emailing me, and I haven't received even the 50% refund that they offered.
This company preys on parents who just want to do as much as possible to help their child be successful. Then they offer nothing that actually helps or educates, and they steal your money. Parenting Leader is a complete SCAM and FRAUD! Do not use them!
They charge me $60 without my consent…
They charge me $60 without my consent after signing to a 28-day challenge program. They are saying they will only refund 50% of something I don’t even know why is being charged for. A complete scam.
So far so good
So far so good. I wish I was unable to unlock at least one more episode. Some days I don't have the time and some days have more time to listen to more.
If I could give 0 stars I would
If I could give 0 stars I would!
The app is not good the lessons are virtually useless with very little actual learning and little content per day.
There were additional charges that I was not notified or aware of lots of money taken from my bank and when contacting to cancel following the cancelation procedure was not refunded the full amount as the adverts say you can within the 30 day period.
Very dissatisfied they are only interested in taking money from desperate parents.
BEWARE - IT IS A SCAM WEBSITE
This is a scam website. They tried to take money from my account twice without my consent in which my bank informed me and declined the transaction upon my approval. And let's not stop here, they charged me £44 this month without my consent.
THIS WEBSITE IS A SCAM.
charged out of the blue
I took the challenge at the beginning of this year and then cancelled after the 28 days. Out of the blue I got charged USD59.99 in September without ever getting a new subscription. After contacting them I was told it has been an error in their system and that I will be refunded the whole amount. Which happened but they canceled the refund on paypal straight away. As I got back to them they told me the refund went through and I have to contact paypal. I think of it as a scam too.
This is a total scam
This is a total scam. Definitely. they will deceive you that you are paying a on time Payment of 18
dollars then later on will charge you 60 dollars. I need to block my card because of these greedy people
SCAM.
SCAM.
I signed up for the 28 day challenge, only paid $10-$14 if I remember correctly. Now all the sudden a couple of months later I have a charge for $42?!!!?? Tried logging into my account today and what do you know, my account doesn’t even exist. I sent an email a month ago after an attempted withdraw from my bank account to cancel my “subscription” that I never signed up for and now a month later they took my money illegally with no existing subscription. How can they do that? And no customer service to speak to? That’s convenient! Just keep sending emails and pray that someone does the right thing? All I know if that if I don’t get a response to my second attempt to remove my account and NOW get a REFUND then I will be taking this to my lawyer. Heck maybe even start a class action because from what I see in these reviews, plenty of parents trying to be GREAT parents have been scammed!

Most importantly, it made me feel like I wasn't alone. Most of the things I was reading felt like someone was in my house watching.

SCAM!!!! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY
This company is nothing but scammers!!!! DO NOT SIGN UP FOR ANYTHING WITH THEM!!! I fell for their stupid ad claiming 28 day plan for just $9.49 - I didn't even use it at all becuase it required I uploaded an app and just never got around to it. Now exaclty 28 days later, they were charging my card $62.84!!!! I never even received any information anywhere for any reoccuring charges or subscriptions. They have no way to get in touch with anyone unless I email, which they have not answered. luckily my credit card company declined it and now I have a mess becuae they put my account on hold so I have to go thru the headache of getting a new card and setting up all my payments again just because of this company that scams people. Disgusting the work they do to take advantage of people and lie about it. Please don't fall for their lies!

Never signing up!
I was going to sign up for this right after I got paid but the email that I got from them has made me definitely decide to not only never sign up with them I will also be telling my friends who are parents not to sign up. The email is very rude and just disrespectful. If I could attach a picture of it I would. The way that they basically call you a horrible parent for not signing up and it just get worse as you continue to read it. This being part of what they sent “I'm disappointed, but not surprised.
Experience has taught me that only 3% of parents who see the program actually invest in transformation.
97% choose to stay stuck.
They choose familiar dysfunction over unfamiliar growth. Known patterns over unknown possibilities. Comfortable chaos over the work of healing.
You're part of the 97%.
This is my final message about the transformation you chose not to pursue.” Disgusting behavior from a parenting app. I don’t understand how they think this will help someone. You tear down parents for what?! To gain business?

Taking Serious Legal Action against this Fraud company !
I have been trying to reach their customer service for 3 months now, each month they charge me without my consent even though their automated AI customer service confirms each time that they have canceled my subscription. This is a complete fraud. I need someone or a real person to get back to me ASAP or else I'll take a legal action through my bank in England and my solicitor to sue them for charging me and keep using my data without my consent !
