2E PG Parent Support Group (IN PERSON)

  • January 13, 2022
  • 6:00 PM - 6:45 PM
  • Midwest Academy for Gifted Education, Chicago

Parenting kids is hard, parenting gifted kids is harder, and parenting 2E and or PG children is extremely hard! If you want to receive support with parenting your gifted child, please join us. Come meet with others who are also seeking support. Many of the struggles around perfectionism, anxiety, are shared among the gifted. We collect topics for input at registration, and will pick one or two topics per discussion, along with making time for everyone saying what they need support with the most and others helping troubleshoot the challenge.

Our community has asked us that we host this parent support group. The group will be hosted by our Director, Judy Wahl, who is a SENG facilitator. This will be in person, and no part of this will be recorded. Limit 10 participants with a waitlist. You do not need to have a MAGE student to attend.

The group will meet for 45 minutes per week, over 4 alternating weeks starting on January 13 and we will add additional weeks if there is interest.

Thursday, January 13, 6:00PM-6:45PM

Thursday, January 27, 6:00PM-6:45PM

Thursday, February 10, 6:00PM-6:45PM

Thursday, February 24, 6:00PM-6:45PM

The cost of the group is $100 for all 4 weeks per adult participant. There’s childcare for an additional cost! Read below.

Boardgames+Pizza (bring your own if gluten free, etc) will be provided at $25/child including supervised play for ages 5+, child must have achieved all self-care and social milestones expected for their age to be hanging out in this setting. There will be minimums for child and parent enrolled attendees so that we can make sure there are enough participants to make this fun. Limit 10 children for COVID safety and student teacher ratio.

You must upload your vaccine record+booster to attend in person and you will be tested on site with a self-administered RAPID test as well that we will provide. Limit 10 children for COVID safety and student teacher ratio.
