We all need the support of good community if we are to make any lasting change. When I read Simplicity Parenting for the first time, I found so many new ideas to implement and I wished that I had a small group of parents with similar goals who could encourage me. Many of you have already connected with Simplicity Parenting groups local to you and have enjoyed the powerful benefits of group study. Some of you may not have found that community in your area, and I hope that this on-line group study will extend that same support to you!
We will begin next week on Monday, covering each chapter of the book with a weekly blog post and a couple of discussion questions which we can discuss in the comments. Everyone has something to teach the rest of the group. And everyone has room to grow! Your comments will be so valuable to others on this path. All that is needed is a willingness to learn and share.
Where can you get a copy of the book? You can check your library or purchase your own copy here. If you’ve already read the book, but would simply like an opportunity to discuss it at greater length, you are still welcome to join in! This may be a great opportunity to look back and go over those things you underlined or made notes on the first time you read.
Will you join us? Would you please leave a brief introduction – Your name or nickname, the ages of your kids, and one goal you have for this study, or a specific area of simplifying on which you hope to share ideas.
I am excited to join you here, next week, for our first chapter!
