THE PARENT PLAYBOOK:
Improving Family Dialogue​
Dr. Rona Hu’s Theatrical Vignettes
Thurs, Oct 9; 7:00 PT (In-person)​​​​
​
Our students feel intense pressure to achieve and often feel overwhelmed by school, parents and peers. Parents, no matter how much we love and want to support our kids, are often at a loss with how to truly communicate and guide them without inflicting more pressure. Dr Rona Hu, inspired by her days as a resident at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) where faculty members used theatrical vignettes to help young doctors learn how to interact with difficult patients, has created a theater troupe comprised mostly of medical professionals who write and perform skits to help parents and students navigate challenging emotions and relationships. Come watch, learn and have fun as Dr Hu and her troupe take you through some role-plays to demonstrate how we can have deeper and more impactful communication with our children.
