Encouraging Responsibility and Independence — The Importance of Positive Communication at Home, at School and in the Social Arena (ZOOM)
As parents we want to do a good enough job guiding, shaping and preparing our kids so that they don’t actually NEED us anymore! Keeping our kids’ eventual independence in mind allows us to provide reasonable parameters for them, help them set goals, and titrate the responsibilities they can assume. A key part of this process is strengthening our own positive communication skillshow we encourage and reinforce our kids’ development in these essential areas.
School psychologist David P. Sylvestro, MA, CSP, will discuss ways parents can promote responsibility and independence through positive interactions with their kids who have LD, ADHD and Executive Function challenges.
Sylvester served as school psychologist at Eagle Hill Schools for over 35 years and currently is serving in that position at The Southport School. He facilitates individual and group counseling sessions, parent support groups and Dads Only groups; provides training and staff development to professionals; and presents at LD conferences worldwide.
