Parents and caregivers will learn ways to help their child understand how words and actions can affect others and guide children ages 7-12 in knowing what is socially appropriate.
Does your child often say things that are either inappropriate or hurtful to someone’s feelings? Deciding what is OK to say or not say in a social situation can be tricky. Ellen Spear, MA, CCC-SLP, of Lakeshore Speech Therapy, LLC, will teach parents and caregivers ways to help their child understand how words and actions can affect others. Learn about “brain filters” and other tips to guide your child ages 7-12 in knowing what is socially appropriate. Register using the link below and you will be emailed information about how to join the program using the free Zoom app or by calling in using a toll-free number. This program is presented in partnership with Westlake Porter Public Library and is supported by a grant from the Knights of Columbus at St. Ladislas. This program is for adults only and a portion will be recorded.
Due to grant funding, programs are open to residents of the Greater Cleveland area.
