<div>The Center for Work, Family and Personal Life is pleased to
announce our upcoming seminar entitled<i> When Kids Are Mean to Each
Other</i>, led by Deborah Weinstock-Savoy, Parenting Education
Consultant.<br>
<br>
"You stink!" "You're not my friend
anymore!" "You can't sit here." Teasing,
excluding, name calling, bullying: The ups and downs of peer
relationship are often painful for our children (and us), but they
also provide crucial opportunities for learning and growth. This
workshop will offer a developmental understanding of social
relationships from preschool through elementary school. We will focus
on how to help children with peer issues, whether they are the victim,
the bystander, or the perpetrator--remembering that many of our
children will be all of these at different times in their school
career.<br>
<br>
This seminar will be held on<b> Tuesday, October 25, 2005</b>, from
12:00 PM to 1:30 PM in the Center conference room, Room 16-151. The
seminar is open to all members of the MIT community, free of
charge.<br>
