parenting in pdx:
a group powered by parents for parents
Membership
is open to any Child's Way parent. This
group is intended for parents just like you!
Parents will meet to discuss and
problem-solve everyday dilemmas involving their kids. The dilemmas to be discussed
will be brought by the group members themselves.
Topics
of discussion could be (but not limited to):
o
Sleep
o
Diet
o
Potty-training
o
Child
relationships
o
School
experiences
o
Screen
time for kids
o
Short
articles/texts of interest
The
power of these groups will be the diversity of topics discussed because they
are what the members want. The above are only possible examples.
The
group will be facilitated by Jessica Baker using modified protocols (from the 'CFG'
system). Jessica has extensive experience running similar groups with high
school staff. Jessica is excited to
adapt this structure for parents and elicit productive conversations from them.
TIME COMMITMENT: Each group will meet once a
month for about 2 hours from September through May. Members of each group
should be consistent from meeting-to-meeting.
Jessica
will be able to run groups on Tuesday and/or Thursday mornings during the
pre-3's class. The possibility of evening groups is still to be determined.
COST: For fall, membership will
be FREE.
Jessica
will be looking into a membership fee starting in January to cover supplies and
logistics for the remainder of the year.

We're all in
this together.
