Parenting in the Time of a Pandemic with Dr. Michael Thompson

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit families. For seven months families have been forced to think about death and safety and to talk to their very young children about it. They are dealing with the loss of regular school, remote learning from home all the while facing threats to employment and the loss of social supports. Many parents are worried that their children will emerge traumatized from this long disruption. In this talk, Dr. Thompson will address the issues and fears affecting families and will offer psychologically sound suggestions for steadying their children and themselves in this difficult time. Originally recorded on Tuesday, November 17, 2020 via Zoom.
