Mistakes Come and Go, but YOU Matter
Deanna Lambson
Mistakes are a part of life. We all make ‘em! Miss an answer on a test? No big deal. Bump a car in front of you? Oh well. Fenders can be fixed. However, when kids make regretted choices online the painful consequences can be long-lasting and almost too much to bear. How do we help our children when they’ve made a mistake online? How do we help them feel safe coming to us for help? How do we reassure them of their worth when shame and sorrow tell them otherwise? In this break out session, we’ll discuss ways to help your child navigate those very difficult repercussions and tough emotions. We’ll learn practical ways to build resilience in children and help them move forward with self-compassion, confidence and hope.
