As a cascade of public and personal violence seems to fill the early years of this century, parents and caretakers alike find themselves facing harder and more frequent questions about the effects such events have or will have on their youngest children. Dr. Kyle Pruett reviews the newest psychological and neurobiological science to help us understand • in plain English • the mechanisms by which such experiences impact our children and ourselves, and their potential to change us and our worldview in both helpful and not-so-helpful ways. Active Q & A will focus on advice for conversations and behavior techniques that reduce the stress of such events on our youngest children. Dr. Pruett's audiences leave feeling better understood, and equipped to help their families adapt to this increasingly familiar 21st-century context.
Now that paternal involvement in the lives of children has been flagged as important to both child and family well being, many questions arise about how the nurturing world is to make room for father’s contributions, given that 1) those contributions differ from mother’s, and 2) child-centered systems (including the family, educational, and healthcare) aren’t currently shaped to easily integrate his contributions. Co-parenting no longer uniquely references parenting after divorce, serving instead as the marquis for the next phase of the real-world of paternal engagement—how parents tag team to raise their children across time, or not. Research and public policy are woven together with clinical realities of the diverse world of paternal and grandparental engagement where non-traditional arrangements expand almost daily. Advice is tendered throughout, ending with the signature audience-engaging Q&A of Kyle Pruett presentations.
In this presentation, Kyle Pruett offers plain-English narration of the parts of the brain and gene science explosion that relate to changes in parenting and/or educating our children in the 21st century. His visually rich explanations highlight what we have now come to understand about the incredible power of experience to shape our genetic building blocks into unique assets and liabilities. Audiences leave this discussion with a new vocabulary, visual imagery of and respect for the plasticity of human growth and development across generations—the very bedrock of resilience. Respect for the limitations of our current understanding is highlighted during the Q & A.
Why are so many cultures who are worried about the well being of their families turning to paternal engagement as a way to lower the risk of further family weakening? Strong evidence-based programs, illustrated by journalistic narratives and video images from Turkey, aboriginal reserves in Alberta, and mixed ethnic groupings in California, serve as base of discussion with audience about how co-parenting influences have the capacity to change communities for the better in profound unforeseen ways.
As neuroscience advances, we are provided with new images almost weekly of how experience shapes the growing brain. Music has emerged as a remarkably influential architect: enhancing, connecting, and strengthening parts of the brain that are crucial in memory, problem solving, cognition, and emotion management to name a few. How this happens to whom, when, and why makes an intriguing illustrated (visual and auditory) story, with Kyle Pruett tying Lady Gaga to Beethoven and beyond. Dr. Pruett’s lifelong experience as a professional musician makes the Q&A segment of this presentation both animated and full of useful advice for parents and educators of the listener/performer/educators.
