Parenting with ACEs -- a new approach with a new group manager

 

Last October, I wrote the post “Parenting with ACEs” that described how, after reading a post by Christine Cissy White, a light bulb went on for me. As a result, we changed the ACEs in Parenting group name to Parenting with ACEs. We felt that was more on target with people’s experiences. I mean, who isn’t parenting with ACEs? (Well, a few very lucky people are, but not the majority….and we’re all on a mission to change that!)  

Since then, we’ve upgraded and reorganized the group. It’s chock full of resources and lists. Cissy White is the new group manager. She introduced herself a couple of weeks ago, and has been posting and reaching out to the group’s 125 members (and growing) to find out what else you want in the group as resources, and/or what you want the group to do.  

We’re also about to close the ACEs in Family Violence group and move people over (who want to do so) to the Parenting with ACEs group. That’s because the name “ACEs in Family Violence” is not very solution-oriented. It also represents the traditional blame-shame-punishment approach of our society and culture that we are making great efforts to change to an understanding-nurturing-healing approach to changing our behavior — unhealthy behavior, criminal behavior or behavior our society just doesn’t like (such as being homeless).

We hope you check out the Parenting with ACEs group. Some of the recent blog posts include: “Holding Space for Our Kids”, “Books to Support Parenting with ACEs?”, “Mother’s Day Musings”, and “How poor phone etiquette (or ‘phubbing’) affects the child of divorce”.
