barronsVIRTUAL - June 10th - Parenting in the Age of Covid-19 as Summer Approaches: Jessica Grose, Lead Editor, Parenting, The New York Times

How are you preparing for summer (at home?) with your kids in the context of Covid-19?

After a spring of adjusting to your kids going to school via distance learning, how are you thinking about:
 

1) How will the rhythms of summer be different after the school year? 

2) How can we get through the months without camp or child care/ 

3) How do we prepare our children for a successful re-entry when they go back to school?

We are excited to welcome Jessica Grose, who will speak about what we know about the long-term effects of this kind of educational and social disruption on kids, and how parents can stay sane while managing kids at home. 

These are just a few among the topics that Grose will speak to as she shares her perspectives as Lead Editor of the New York Times' Parenting work.  Additionally, Grose will take extensive Q&A to ensure that your questions are addresed given the different needs of different parents and different children.

Jessica Grose grew up in Irvington (parented by a '70 Radcliffe alum/mom) and graduated from Brown.  Prior to her work for the New York Times, Grose wrote for Slate and several other publications; published two books, Sad Desk Salad (2012) and Soulmates (2016); and served as Editor-in-Cheif of Lenny, an email newsletter focusing on feminism, style, politics and more.

She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two daughters, ages 7 and 3.
