What do we really know about how to teach ethics to children? Recent research has been challenging old theories and developing new approaches that are more effective. Join
Dale McGowan, noted author , for a practical workshop on raising compassionate and morally courageous children. This engaging half-day event will couple recent research in ethical development with practical tips to help parents, teachers, and other caregivers raise ethically responsible children. The workshop will be useful to anyone involved in raising or working with children.
