Two questions I've been asked lately:
1." Can you recommend any favorite parenting books for early elementary, late elementary, and middle school parents?" (This question came from a parent looking for suggestions.)
2. "Can you recommend good places for me to share my thoughts with voters and promote my school board candidacy?" (This question came from a school board candidate.)
Feel free to put your ideas in the comments below. Thanks!
Information, news, and ideas about Ann Arbor, Washtenaw County, and Michigan schools; thoughts about education; and occasionally other stuff too.
My all-time favorite parenting book is a simple one.... How to talk so kids will listen, and listen so kids will talk. It applies to all ages, and I like to re-read it every so often, it always helps me.

Wendy Mogel, "Blessing of a Skinned Knee". It's just perfect.
