Making Sense of Our Kids' Behavior: December 11th. Kid's behaviors can be a particular challenge for the parents of children with special needs. How can parents identify and respond to their children's strengths, as well as their problems? How can parents work with their children's stages of development instead of trying to resist them? Join the Belmont Special Education Advisory Council as internationally acclaimed speaker, author and childhood expert Dr. Lawrence Kutner shares his insights and strategies. Dr. Kutner is the author of five books on child development and parent-child communication. He's the co-founder and co-director of the Harvard Medical School Center for Mental Health and Media, and is on the psychiatry faculty at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital. We will meet on December 11th from 7:30 - 9:00 p.m. in the Chenery Middle School Faculty Dining Room located at 95 Washington Street in Belmont. Free, open to all and disability accessible.
