We all know that communication is essential to healthy relationships, and parenting is certainly no exception. Rachael and Dave Urban will explore with us how our own emotional and spiritual maturity is critical to effectively communicating with our children. Learn how purposeful listening makes all the difference in helping our kids learn and grow.
Join us online at this lunchtime event to discover how the real win in parental communication is empowering our kids to thrive in the future rather than keeping the peace in the present.
Intended audience: parents with students in preschool through grade 12.
