How to Parent Through a Financial Crisis

In this video, Dr. Jennifer Jones will guide us through one of today’s hottest topics – how the economy is especially hard on parents, how to discuss it with their children.  Younger  children  have  trouble  understanding  complex  issues,  and  they  tend  to  blame themselves for problems they don’t understand; by contrast, older children feel embarrassed when their family’s financial woes impact their social lives, and can  lash  out  against  the  parents  in  response.   Join Dr. Jones for a discussion about how  you  can  harness  the  power  of  this  struggle  and  turn  it  around  for  yourself  and  for  your  kids including communication strategies, preparation, and empowerment.
