In our current self-absorbed world where life is often hectic and families

caring and empathetic individuals has never been more important. Using
Dr. Michele Borba’s book, “UnSelfie”, as a guide, we will discuss the tools
needed to reverse the selfish culture back to a more caring culture. Don’t
miss this opportunity to impact the children in your life.

NEW! Parenting with Wit & Wisdom
The focus is on helping children develop their own self-discipline. Discuss
how to parent strong-willed children, effective alternatives to time-outs,
bribes, and threats, and how to help children resolve disputes and serious
injustices such as bullying. Discussion time will focus on information
from the book, “Kids are Worth It,” by Barbara Coloroso. Come away
with strategies and practical suggestions for helping your child to be
responsible, resilient, and resourceful -- not because you tell them to, but
because they want to.
