The entire goal of this parenting endeavor is to foster our children’s independence to a point where they can move away from us and live on their own.
-Vanessa Kroll Bennett
Vanessa Kroll Bennett will join us in the Scott Room at the library to discuss how adults can best communicate with teens and tweens living the rollercoaster of hormonally-driven emotions. Vanessa will cover the gamut of adolescent relationships — including family, friends, and romantic interests — and lay out research-based, relatable strategies to support tweens and teens. The talk will be followed by a 15 minute Q&A, so have those pressing questions ready!
