<div style="margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt; "><font face="Times New Roman, serif">Parenting gifted children can be an overwhelming and lonely task. There are few places available for support and guidance. Just as students are often misunderstood, so are
parents who earnestly seek to do what is best for their children. This webinar will address some of the issues experienced by families of gifted children. Specific tips will be shared to increase communication, address sibling relationships, assist students
with interactions among peers, understand the dilemma of perfectionism and other stressors, and enhance parent relationships.</font></div>
