I am a lover of festivals and events. I created this group to bring other single parents together to have fun. So often the daily grind and stress of being a single parent can take its toll, what better way to take a break than to meet with like minded people and celebrate life to the fullest. I attend events like the Tomato Throwing Festival, Chili Feeds, and other unique social events and it has always been a way for me to take a step back and realize that for me to be a better parent, I need …
This group is for parents whose children are in a state of too much anxiety (fear where there's no real threat.) We will be here to support you and will hold events in the Twin Cities to bring great ways of dealing with anxiety ... ways you never heard of before now. Present Moment Parenting will be employed, with customized approaches to YOUR situation. Anyone whose child has anxiety is welcome to join. The need for support is real, and the help is just as real.
