In this exciting and informative evening,

more effectively with stress and pressure and become resilient. He
discusses:
* understanding and responding to children
* why some children from birth have a more difficult time developing a
positive self-image and resilience than
other children
* specific strategies for nurturing self-discipline, self-esteem,
responsibility, caring, hope, and resilience in our
children.
