In an effort to continue enhancing Berkeley Lab’s family-friendly environment, the Women Scientists and Engineers Council (WSEC) and the Diversity and Inclusion Office (DIO) are co-hosting a bi-monthly parenting class series (six classes total), from May 2015 – May 2016. The sixth class, “Allowance, Chores, and Family Work,” facilitated by Marcilie Smith Boyle, will be held on Tuesday, May 24th from 12:00-1:30 p.m. in B70A Room 3377. This event is open to the entire Berkeley Lab community, for both men and women, including partners and spouses (employees have to make any visitor pass arrangements necessary).
No cost, but registration is required. To register, please complete this form. Please RSVP by Friday, May 20th. Due to limited space, we can only accept 40 participants for this class.
Class Description:
Wouldn’t it be nice if the kids contributed to the household without expecting payment for it? Join us this month to learn fun and easy methods to improve children’s cooperation and contribution to family work — at absolutely no cost to you! We will also discuss the purpose and long term learning from giving allowance: how much? how often? what’s the point?
