Join the Parent Collective's next Parent Conversation on Media!
Wondering if/how you should talk to your kids about the election, school shootings, or other news? Trying to negotiate limits on screen time...or figure out what age to allow social media?
Next week we will be hosting January's Parent Conversation on Media. All parents--and perhaps particularly Waldorf parents--struggle with these questions. There are no perfect answers, but when we talk through them together, we gain insights and community. Whether you're a new parent looking for guidance or a parent of an older kid with experience to offer (or questions of your own!), come join the conversation!
Tuesday 1/28, 3:45-4:45pm in WC library (RSVP by Monday to Mrs. Lavender at mrslavender@ to ensure we have a group of at least 5-8 parents; childcare is also available via Mrs. Lavender)
Friday 1/31, 8:30-9:30am in DR library (no RSVP necessary)
