How is it almost summer?! Summer 365 and Cooper are here to clear up any last worries, concerns, and questions you have about getting your child (and you!) camp-ready. How to handle homesickness? Communication with your child while they’re away? Your role in supporting your child’s friendships? We’ll cover it all. Did you miss our first assembly with Summer 365? Head to the recordings to catch up on lessons for parents of first time campers!

Dr. Niobe Way has spent decades interviewing teenage boys about the pressure on them to “man up” as they grow up. Her research has found that boys, like everyone else, are empathetic and just want to feel connected. How can we support our sons’ emotional development, mental health, and friendships? How can we support them in feeling and expressing their emotions – all of them – so that they can be their authentic selves? Let’s learn together. Join Cooper’s Chief of Education Dr. Erin O’Connor and Dr. Way for a discussion dismantling stereotypes about boys’ emotional development.

Join Dr. Erin O’Connor, Cooper’s Chief of Education, and Dr. Jeanne Donaldson, a time out researcher and professor at Louisiana State University. She knows the ins and outs of exactly how to use time outs effectively. We’ll walk through exactly what to do step by step to make a time out effective (and not harmful!), from the conversation you have in the car on the way to the park, to the moment when your child pushes another kid down the slide, plus the follow-up conversation afterwards.

The way time outs are talked about online and on social media makes it sound like you’re abandoning your child. When done with intention and care, they are NOT linked to any negative impact on your relationship with your child.

Time outs are a tool that research has found to be effective, but they’re just one of many tools you can use to address challenging behaviors. Take them or leave them. If you don’t want to use them, there are other strategies that you can use.

We’re here at Cooper to empower you with evidence-based strategies so that you feel confident in whatever parenting choice you make.
