TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 9 – 8:45 a.m. (Part 2)

Copies of the book are available at the Front Desk (for purchase or loan).

WMS parent & author Amy Julia Becker will lead interested parents in a discussion of Jessica Lahey’s book, “The Gift of Failure.” You don’t want to be a helicopter parent, but it’s just easier to make lunches for your kids. You’re tempted to bring them their homework when they leave it on the kitchen counter. You’ve heard about a “growth mindset,” but you aren’t quite sure what that means, especially in the day-to-day of family life. If any of these sentences describe you, you aren’t alone. Join us for an interesting discussion of this modern parenting manifesto.
