There can be a considerable learning curve for parents who have helped support and advocate for their children for 18 years before being "kicked out" of the process. This is especially true for a parent of a student who learns differently. The college views your child as a capable young adult, but how do you learn to be their college parent? This session focuses on how parents can support their students as they become self-reliant and college-ready. Topics include: teaching teens to understand new responsibilities; preparing students for college academics; guiding their self-sufficient problem-solving; helping prepare them to seek disability accommodations; and supporting them as they build resilience after challenges and setbacks. Our speaker, Dr. Andrea Malkin Brenner. speaks about the transition to college during this important Podcast.
