STRESS & GENDER
~What are the differences in stress 
between boys and girls?
~What can parents do to help?

For the second event in this year's Head Speaker Series, we are honored to welcome Dr. Belle Liang, P'18 and Dr. William Pollack to speak to us about a topic that seems to grow more and more relevant each year:  STRESSED CHILDREN. 

Dr. Liang (parent of a BB&N junior), is an Associate Professor of  Counseling, 
Developmental, and  Educational Psychology at Boston College's Lynch School of Education . Dr. Pollack is an Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School and  Founder & Director Centers for Men, Young Men & Boys, as well as the author of Real Boys. 

We are excited to hear their perspectives on the differences by which boys and girls -- at all age levels -- experience and cope with stress, and their advice for how we as parents can help our children in these times of ever-increasing stress.

We expect that their presentation will be compelling and thought-provoking for parents from all three campuses. And of course, questions will be welcome. 
We hope you will be able to join us!

Help us manage the "stress" of how much food to order!

If you plan to join us for the dinner portion of the event, could you
please reply to this email to let us know how many from your party 
will be coming for dinner? 
(You don't need to reply if you're planning to come only to the program.) 

Thank you!

The Head's Speaker Series at BB&N, founded in 2013, 
invites  local experts to speak with parents about topics that 
are important  to the growth, well-being, and success 
of children of all ages at BB&N. It's a great opportunity to connect 
with leading thinkers, and with  other parents in the community, 
on issues that really matter in our children's lives. 
Parking will be available in the two Upper School lots 
(adjacent to the main academic building as well as the Nicholas Athletic Center).
