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.

PLEASE come to Tampa, FL!!!
Oops! That should be Janet, not Jane. We would love to have you here. I can think of many avenues to promote an appearance including both my kids’ schools, the Girl Scouts and sports groups. Please consider Tampa!
Are there any dates past April ’10? Missed the event in Cincinnati but would go anywhere in OH, KY, IN & very possibly elsewhere fairly close to do this w/ our 12 year old. Please advise if there will be more dates forth coming. Thanks!
Jane and Karin,
As of now all the dates we have scheduled are posted here, but there is a strong possibility this will pick back up in the fall of 2010! We will let you know details as we have them and thank you so much for your support! Your messages are a big part of what will help us choose our next cities!
Please come to FL!!
