Parenting Workshop: Aggression, Competition, and Rivalry: The Meaning of Children’s Friendships

Friendships are important at any
age, but for the school-aged child, they take on a particular significance. It
can be difficult to help your child navigate the complexities of middle childhood,
especially the social dynamics that so affect a child’s sense of self, confidence
and well-being.

This informative workshop, lead by psychoanalyst/psychotherapist
and parenting consultant, Karen Perlman Ph.D., focuses on the developmental tasks
of children aged 7-12. In addition to providing a framework for understanding the
emotional challenges children face at this age, the workshop offers parents
suggestions for how to strengthen children’s resilience out in the world and
offer emotional support at home. RSVP brooke_wachtel@meadschool.org
