We are excited to offer a family book club, starting with the parenting book Good Inside: A Practical Guide to Resilient Parenting Prioritizing Connection Over Correction by Dr. Becky Kennedy.
Club leaders are Betsey van de Heijning, the Lower School counselor, and Robin Wheeler, interim head of the Lower School. The book provides practical tools to navigate difficult situations with empathy and support while aiming to foster resilient and confident children through a positive mindset.
It’s sure to lead to some great conversations. The club meets at 8:15 a.m. on these Wednesdays: Feb. 19, März 19, and April 30. During our first meeting, we will discuss part one of the book, where Dr. Becky outlines her parenting principles.
The two remaining meetings (März 10 and April 30) will focus on building connections and addressing behaviors. Everyone is welcome to join any of the conversations whether or not you have read her book. Please respond to this survey to help us prepare.
We hope you will be able to join us!
