Raising Resilient Kids: Lessons from our Speakers
Coping Partners
Leigh Weisz, PsyD, Michelle Bagan Winterstein, LCSW, and Kathy Solk, LCPC of Coping Partners led an engaging and dynamic presentation on Raising Resilient Kids at the Northbrook Public Library on September 5th.
Thank you to everyone who attended CATCH's first Speaker Series event of the season.

Here's a quick look at what we learned about Raising Resilient Kids :

  • Allowing your child to FALL & FAIL will help them develop coping skills necessary for adulthood.
  • Instill a GRIT mindset: hard work is important.
  • Look for moments to turn struggles into opportunities for growth.
  • Focusing on the process of your child's experience rather than the outcome will help them build confidence.
  • Resist the temptation to relieve your child's stress.
