At Strong Start I always share my thoughts about how you are all doing Amazing work at being parents. I just wanted to reassure you that even though things have changed, you are still Amazing!!
Life looks different for me right now, so much has changed in our daily life which has given me more time to listen to more webinars and documentaries. I find I can always take away something new or meaningful. I wanted to share a few with you, the first one is one Anita suggested called Parenting through the Pandemic. It is by Vancouver’s own, Dr. Gordon Neufeld, who is a developmental psychologist and author of the book Hold onto Your Kids . I enjoyed watching it and I will share tomorrow how it inspired me. You can follow the link below if you are interested in watching it.
I also wanted to share the following webinar that I signed up for. The description is below,
Parenting in the time of coronavirus? This is NOT what we signed up for. It’s exhausting trying to do all of the things, all the time. These days as parents, we’re all just trying to survive, let alone thrive.
There’s a better way. Find out how to focus on what really matters, do more with less and forget the rest.
