In a comfortable setting, guided group participation and conversation will address the joys and pitfalls of being a grandparent in these times. We will draw on our own experiences and skills to share with the group and expand our thinking. Topics include how perspectives differ for the generations, setting and enforcing limits (mine, theirs and ours), how to talk to be heard and the best times to listen. The group will share ways to pass on our own life wisdom and values; and, when desired, influence doing things differently. This class is for grandparents who see their grandkids daily, as well as those who don’t. Our facilitator has 20 years’ experience working with discussion groups that inspire thinking and problem-solving for parents and grandparents. Limit 22.
