Parenting through Political Upheaval Workshop
Parenting through Political Upheaval Workshop
How are you holding up? Are the kids alright?
The pressures we are facing in this period of political upheaval are heavy. In this workshop we will work to help you out of the fear and hopelessness that we are all feeling and address how to engage your kids in developmentally appropriate ways to allow them to find their way alongside you.
What You’ll Take Home:
By the end of this workshop, you'll walk away with practical tools you can start using immediately—like a script to help you answer your child’s tough questions about current events without overwhelming them, a family “circle check-in” ritual to encourage open communication, and a plan for setting media boundaries that preserve your child’s sense of safety.
You'll also leave with a developmentally appropriate framework for discussing justice, fairness, and activism with kids of different ages—plus a list of conversation starters and books to read together as a family. Most importantly, you'll gain a renewed sense of calm and clarity, so you can show up as a grounded, emotionally regulated presence in your child’s life, even in chaotic times.
