Building Responsibility and Resilience in Kids

Teaching Young People to Navigate Challenges with Skill, Independence, and Confidence

We are delighted to welcome back popular speaker and youth expert Michael Brandwein for another skill-packed, entertaining presentation for parents and caregivers of all age young people! Today’s young people of all ages need even more support in learning how to be independent, solve problems, and handle challenges. This nationally acclaimed session demonstrates Michael’s special three-step C.D.C. technique to help young people think more for themselves, with greater confidence.

The session includes:

• Exactly what to say and do to help young people learn how to solve problems, handle mistakes and challenges, and get what they need with greater independence, resiliency, confidence, and calmness
• How to boost confidence while reducing whining and increasing critical thinking skills
• Teaching young people the specific “language” to use and questions to ask that lead to effective, persistent problem-solving
• Reduce “rescuing” of young people and increase the use of daily—but often “invisible”–opportunities to practice responsibility skills
