    Where to start.... I learned alot. For those of you that have done a lot of research and put a lot of time into OE's, you probably wouldn't have heard much that you didn't already know.

    One part that I found very interesting, related to a topic we've discussed at great length is how GT's lack of organizational skills are related to OE's. That had certainly never occurred to me. I'll explain it more tomorrow when I'm not on 'puter overload.

    The facillitator at the beginning of the program said that they would be sending out a pdf version of the presentation to all of those registered. If I get it, I'll happily pass it along to any of you that are interested.

    I am another one who would appreciate it. The OE's and teen hormones are a bit difficult to manage recently.

    Thanks in advance smile

    Shari,
    I'm just learning about all of this still, especially the OE thing. But I definitely think my DS12 and DD7 both have OE issues. I would appreciate the handouts as well.

    She talked a lot about small things that I wouldn't even consider an OE. Things like tags in clothing etc. One point that she kept coming back to was talking to your kids about their OE's. Talk about what bothers them and ways to minimize the effects.

    I attended the webinair as well and thought she was a very good speaker. She had a lot of interesting ideas on how to help our OE children! I just wish that the cost was a little less because I would like to attend more in the future!
