Parenting in Northern Virginia—BIG Emotions Edition

These are such unprecedented times. Not only do we have impossible schedules to deal with for who knows how long, but our children (and ourselves) are likely dealing with some BIG emotions.

Abiding Presence is sponsoring a FREE online interactive seminar: Parenting in Northern Virginia-- BIG Emotions Edition, to discuss how to manage parenting when our families' lives have been turned upside down. Join us on Sunday, April 5th, 4-5pm.

Parents of children at any age are welcome to join, but the sessions topics are probably best for those in the toddler through elementary school.

This session will once again be led via Zoom by Megan and Allie: two school psychologists who work with families in the community, and are parents themselves. The Zoom link is pinned in the announcements of the Event.

Topics will include practical tips focused on:
- Helping our children handle BIG emotions!
- Getting kids to do what they need to
- Giving yourself grace!

It is an extremely challenging time for all of us, and parents are juggling a lot. Let’s support each other through community, connection, and sharing ideas and resources, led by experienced mental health professionals.

Our session is Sunday, April 5th, 4-5pm. Don’t worry- you can mute yourselves! We hereby give permission for a community-wide movie time while Parents connect. Interruptions by children and animals expected.

Interested? Just indicate you are interested via this event invitation! Send any questions to Sarah, Congregational Care Minister, at sarah@abidingpresence.net.
