As all parents of children with nonverbal learning disabilities know, it's really difficult for our children to meet and maintain friends. Part of the problem is that it's tough to connect with other families who understand the needs of NLD kids, and with those whose kids struggle with similar issues. So, this group will hopefully make it easier for us to connect our kids and to form networks of support and friendship that enrich our children's lives. We know we have great kids, so lets start ge …

It may be frustrating at times to grow up in the society that has many false believes imprinted deeply through the centuries of it's evolution.

I envision this group to be the sharing ground based on mutual support, respect and freedom. This group is not only for indigo and crystal children, even though helping them and learning from them is the purpos …

Welcome to finding family again! This group is all about finding like-minded others! I've decided to start this group because I've met a few adult orphans lately. In the absence of family, we have to make our own family. Stick together in community. Orphaning is a special kind of situation and building community around that, would make sense for all of us. I'm interested in doing the following kinds of things: Meeting other orphans Sharing stories and coping mechanisms Building new "family" sup …

For three years, ever since my son was born, I've been looking for a group of people who care deeply about children - people who want to learn from each other, support each other and serve each other in going through the exquisite challenge of growing for the sake of our children. Sometimes we experience suffering in our relationships. However, we also have the capacity to transcend the suffering we cause ourselves, and when we take that oportunity and share it with our children, we can experie …

… There will be 3 types of meetups: 1) Cooperative games (board games, card games, pub games). 2) Cooperative sports (tennis, volleyball, soccer, hockey, etc.) 3) Cooperative games for children (accompanied by adults). Please let me know when you join the meetup which type(s) of meetups interest you. A lot of people would agree that pre-school children should be encouraged to cooperate instead of compete, but would want older children to compete because that's how the "real world" is. There seems …

Welcome everyone! I am creating this group as I have been unable to find a Mom and Child group close to the Don Mills area. I feel it is so important for us stay-at-home moms and dads to connect our children with others so they develop proper social interaction. With my background in Early Childhood Education I wish to create an environment where we can join in creative activities with our children and aid in their development in all areas. So bring your ideas, your creativity, and your singin …

… We can do things like get together for stroller walks, meet-ups for coffee, attend events, attend fun places like the beach, Zoo, Science Centre etc. and just get together for social interaction for both us and our children. I am open to ideas as well from other members and Moms. I have found the older mom set has additional factors in addition to health, to take into account when parenting and feel that by surrounding ourselves with others in the same or similar situations would be a great supp …
