Solutions For Today's Parents and Teachers
Catherine W. Mallam, M.S.Ed.
​

I have talked with thousands of children and young adolescents about their friendships, school experiences, and worries, and I still hear something new almost every day. But in kids' stories I also hear much that is similar. Many challenges that kids face are developmental. Predictable. Temporary. Common. And solvable. 

​

We have an abundance of valuable psychological research about childhood, but many parents and teachers don't have time to access it, even as we are bombarded with worst-case scenarios in both the popular and social media about the problems children experience. 

 

In my professional development workshops for educators and parent presentations, I distill the psychological research in a way that is accessible and offer parents and teachers fresh perspectives on common challenges in childhood and early adolescence.
