Come to Milagros on 7/15 at 6:30 pm for a special parenting workshop “For Crying Out Loud”. Here is a description from the class organizers and you can also read more here:
This course is designed to give us a look inside ourselves to see why we want to stop crying and other child emotion when they arise. It’s an automatic response for most of us to distract babies when they cry (bounce, rock, shush, feed) and as they get older we often ignore or punish crying to get children to stop. As older children and adults have hurtful experiences we often try to fix the sadness or anger with a hug, ‚Äúit’s ok‚Äù, ‚Äúhere this will make you feel better‚Äù, rather than simply listening.
In this course we look at the profound benefits of crying and expressing emotion when an understanding listener is with us. You will get a glimpse of what is possible for you and your children when you’re calm around emotion.
Suggested donation is $10 per family but no payment is required.
