Webinar: Surprising Support Techniques for Your Teen’s Pandemic Angst by NAA Career Webinar Series

About This Webinar

Stay-at-home during this COVID-19 pandemic just shifted from “let’s try to flatten the curve for a few months” into a long-haul situation with so many unknowns. And a huge unknown is this: How are our teens really handling the series of disappointments from more cancelled events, the physical and emotional distance from their friends, the plusses and minuses of online learning – and being home with YOU 24/7?

Let’s have a heart-to-heart look at a surprising way to support your teens as they navigate a level of teenage angst that simply did not exist when we were going through it all. This is not another sales-y pandemic webinar from a guru. This is an exchange of the latest update on a discovery that a fellow parent made – and has applied with her own students, mentees, and four kids.

She’s living it right now with her 2 current teens. It’s not easy, but it’s actually simple and quite liberating. Let’s give this a go. Because that’s all we can do, and we can do this together.
