Even in the best of times, trying to find solid parenting advice can feel like navigating a maze of confusing (and contradictory) information. The pandemic has brought on an unprecedented set of challenges and parents have been bombarded with advice. How can parents make sense of so much information and implement it at home?

This year’s Spring Luncheon featured journalist Stephanie Ruhle who led a discussion with bestselling author Dr. Emily Oster and Dr. Jamie Howard, director of the Trauma and Resilience Service at the Child Mind Institute, on the benefits — and limits — of using data-driven strategies to cope with family anxiety.
