Separation Anxiety Conversation May 5, 2009

As parents we all have trouble letting go, even as our children get older. When they are infants and toddlers and cry for mommy or daddy, we want to scoop them into our arms and make it all better. So placing them in a childcare setting, even a warm one that we trust, can be as upsetting to us as to our child. Please join us for a conversation on ways to deal with the anxiety that we and our children go through and make the transition easier. We encourage new parents and veterans to join us and contribute. Each week is free and open to members and non-members. Come once or as many times as you like. Sessions will be moderated by Ashley Correira and/or MF Chapman.

Upcoming discussions:
Time: 9:30 - 10:00am
Dates:

* March 26th, Thursday
* April 7th, Tuesday
* April 23rd, Thursday
* May 5th, Tuesday
