"Did Grandma Get it Right?" - Sunday, June 13 through Sunday, August 1

Though technology may be more advanced and temptations may be gift-wrapped differently, raising children with strong values and knowledge of right and wrong are timeless.

From 9:30-10 a.m. on Sunday mornings beginning June 13th, for 8 consecutive weeks, we'll ask the question: "Did Grandma Get it Right?" We expect to generate a relaxed, informal conversation around family, values, and the rearing of children in a high anxiety, anything-goes climate. If you are in the "throes" of parenting, or a Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt, Uncle - anyone of any age who was ever born into a family, you'll have something to share. All are invited to put our heads together, enjoy some laughs, and learn from being a diverse community of believers. Here is the line-up:

• June 13:  Respect for Adults and Authority of Adults
• June 20:  Teaching Children to Pull Their Own Weight (Chores)
• June 27:  Freedom and Its Flip Side, Responsibility
• July 4:    Teaching Children to Solve Their Own Problems
• July 11:  The Absurdity of Arguing
• July 18:  Wanting What You Have, Not What You Don't
• July 25:  Discipline, Punishment, and Consequences
• August 1: Seeing the Bigger Picture of Parenting

Each session is self-contained, so if you miss one or two, you can fall right back into participation the following Sunday.
We meet at the Fluvanna County Middle School, in the Library. Worship service follows at 10:15 a.m.
