Wow, this sounds great. My daughter and I will be there. With a new baby, I think she’s feeling a little left out it will be good to have some “us” time again.
My daughter is five and this is the kind of thing I really want to learn and expose her to. Don’t suppose there’s anything I can start doing in the 3 years before we can attend one of these seminars?
Christina,
While 5 is a bit young for most of the issues Rosalind talks about, the new edition of Queen Bees & Wannabes has a whole chapter on younger girls issues — and yes sometimes kids can be affected by social aggression at that early age. If not, you can always read it now to prepare yourself for what’s to come.
