Glenbard Parent Series presents:  Dr. Becky Kennedy with Lori Gottlieb

Good Inside: A Guide to Becoming the Parent You Want to Be

From rewards and incentives to tracking kids or grounding them, many popular parenting approaches are based on shaping behavior, not rearing the child. These techniques don’t build the skills kids need for life, or take into account a child’s unique emotional needs. When you factor in a parent’s sometimes complicated relationship with their own upbringing, it’s easy to see why caretakers can feel lost, burned out or worried they’re failing their kids.

Dr. Becky Kennedy will share her wisdom about the challenges of guiding teens and pre-teens in today’s complex world. In her most recent book, “Good Inside: A Guide to Becoming the Parent You Want to Be,” Dr. Kennedy translated her knowledge on attachment, mindfulness, emotional regulation and internal family systems theory into a new method for parents.

Dr. Kennedy will share actionable strategies to help parents move from uncertainty and self-blame to confidence and steadfast leadership. Join us to learn perspective-shifting principles and troubleshooting tips for specific scenarios that will produce real-world results and increase your confidence and resilience as a parent.
