One of the first parenting books I ever read was “Kids Are Worth It” by Barbara Coloroso.  When I attended her talks as a young mother, I didn’t know I was going to become a parent educator or speaker myself. I just wanted to drink up all her wisdom.  She is an internationally reknowned consultant on parenting, teaching, school discipline, positive school climates, bullying, grieving, non-violent conflict resolution and restorative justice.    Such a pleasure to get this hour with her to talk about how to parent around the death and all the chaos that surrounds us during this pandemic.  Barbara will talk about the Tao of Family ( time, affection, optimism) and the 3 passages of grief. You’ll hear how to talk to a child about death as well as signs your child needs professional support.   In the podcast, Barbara recommends the following book:  They Came Like Sparrows:   https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B002PYFVW6/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 You can get free downloaded resources from her website: www.kidsareworthit.com Follow her on social:  Twitter: @BarbaraColoroso LinkedIn: Barbara Coloroso FB: https://www.facebook.com/Kids-are-worth-it-inc-259924737382882/ Hosted on Acast.
