About this Event

It happens so often. You're talking to your child and something you say causes a disconnection, and your child checks out. What becomes possible instead if you offer to be a "teddy bear?" Teddy bears say very little. When a teddy bear does talk, it is because the talker has asked the teddy bear to do something small, like ask questions or reflect some things back. When a teddy bear asks a question, the question isn't about any concerns or agenda that the teddy bear might have. Instead, the question is open and honest and supports the talker in having plenty of room to take things where the talker wants to go.

In this workshop, we will explore open, honest questions and many more aspects of Teddy Bear Talk Support.
