WECAN EVENT - Creating Your Family Culture

In our time, a child's self-perception and relationship with others is increasingly impacted by the influences, messages, and pressures of the world outside of home. Sometimes, without knowing it, we relinquish the tender task of parenting to these other forces and spend our time trying to bring our children back to themselves. A strong family culture can be a valuable partner in our parenting task. It can be a beacon for a child's growing moral compass, a secure container for their growing sense of self and their burgeoning emotional life, and a fertile foundation that nurtures their sense of purpose. Explore ways to consciously build and nurture a family culture that can be a wellspring for your growing child.
