Stop Bullying by Arming Our Children with Emotional Intelligence

The fight against bullying starts with us but in order to effectively guide our children we must have the tools needed for success. This seminar will delve into the concept of emotional intelligence and how, when taught to children from a very young age, it can better prepare them with confidence and resiliency for handling bullying and successfully dealing with life's challenges.


The seminar is free and open to the public and will be held on Tuesday January 15 at 7:00pm at Youville Place, 10 Pelham Road in Lexington, MA.  The event is sponsored by LexFun.  


The speaker will be Dr. Donna Housman, Founder of Beginnings School in Weston.  She is a leading expert in the early education community and provides research, consulting, training, and keynote talks on child developmental issues for parents and educators. She has spoken frequently on the subjects of emotional intelligence and bullying. She is a licensed Psychologist with a private practice in Wellesley Hills and is Assistant Clinical Professor at the BU School of Medicine.
