			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cathy will be speaking at <strong>Field Elementary School this Monday, October 19th at 7:00 p.m.</strong><br />
Event is sponsored by the PTA for parents/guardians of Field Elementary School and Hawthorne Elementary School, Elmhurst, IL</p>
<p>This presentation/discussion will focus on essential parenting skills for our fast-moving pop culture. We will discuss how media can influence a child intellectually and emotionally and how a positive parent/child relationship can lessen the negative effects.<br />
• Understand how the media can effect your children&#8217;s educational and emotional development<br />
• Discover tools to deal with new parenting challenges in our pop culture<br />
• Appreciate that children need time for quiet and introspection to develop a sense of self<br />
• Learn how to develop a healthy and positive relationship with your children so they can establish their self identity</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My first book, <strong>The Self-Aware Parent:  19 Lessons for Growing with Your Children,</strong> will be out late Oct/early November.  Check my blog, my Facebook page (Intentional Parenting) or follow me on Twitter (Cathy Cassani Adams or username selfawareparent) for more updates.<br />
<strong>Quote from the book&#8230;&#8230;</strong><br />
<em>Take care of yourself so you can role model what it means to have a happy life.  Make yourself a priority so you have the presence of mind to be with your children.  Give attention to your passions or your hobbies and let your children see you as a whole person with many interests.</em></p>
