At our 2025 Fall PTA General Meeting, Dr. Chris Bogart from the Sasco River Center spoke to us about "Raising Confident and Resilient Kids." He reminded us that stress is inevitable, normal, and even important for development; the hard part for parents is how to model healthy management of stress and struggle.  

Please refer to the following resources from the session:

• Zoom Recording of the session
• Dr. Bogart's presentation
• Book he mentioned regarding the Space program: Breaking Free of Child Anxiety & OCD
• The Sasco River Center in Darien has lots of other great resources!
