      Do you have problems with your child's picky eating, likes and dislikes, playful eating, or other eating issues ？

      Mealtime with young children is difficult … but a distressing time that comes three times a day …
      We will hold a lecture for families who feel this way ！
      This course is a workshop to understand the basics of children's picky eating and likes and dislikes, to learn in an easy-to-understand way how parents should deal with them, and to practice together with others who have the same problems.

      The lecturer will be Dr. Fukui, a Japanese pediatrician currently living in the Bay Area. Please join us.

      *Feedback from previous parenting class series

      🌱"I realized that other people had the same problems and shared their experiences with me. … I was very encouraged and happy."
      🌱"It was a safe environment where the facilitators accepted any kind of talk in a positive manner and gave advice in kind words. In addition to the excellent lecture content, through in-class work and homework sharing （ I was able to ） gain insights and learn from other people's episodes, etc." I think that without such an opportunity, we would not have had a chance to seriously face the issue. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to organize this ！
      🌱"I really enjoyed interacting with everyone who came together, and I felt supported and grateful for the relationships I made as the sessions went on"
      🌱"I had never been able to build trust online in such a short period of time.
