Just like that, summer is wrapping up and the next school year is around the corner. As a mom, maybe you’re breathing a sigh of relief, knowing you’ll gain a few hours back in the day where you won’t be pestered (we get it!). Or maybe you’re a bit apprehensive—you don’t know what’s in the curriculum this year, whether your child will get along with their teacher, or what they’ll hear from other students. No matter which feeling you identify with, this episode of This Grit and Grace Life will help you feel more at ease in the new school year.
Darlene Brock and Julie Bender chat through everything you need for a strong back to school strategy, from getting your kids out the door faster in the morning and establishing a routine, to preparing them for new (and potentially divisive) information and people they might not get along with. You’ll learn how to help them respond to any situation with respect, dignity and critical thinking—the ultimate lesson for school and life.
