Summary

Cathy and Todd discuss why it can be challenging for families when kids are involved in youth team sports or travel leagues. They also discuss why valuing relationship above all else will make decision making so much easier, and why leaders who value relationship are the most successful.
John O’Sullivan will be speaking about this @ the Let’s Get Real Conference in March. His interview with us can be found @ https://zenpopparenting.com/osullivan/ and his Ted Talk is below

Zen Parenting Radio believes that a great movie can entertain, generate discussion, and open hearts and minds. We are committed to bringing relevant and thought-provoking documentaries to our community to create awareness and greater empathy. We have screened Girl Rising, Race to Nowhere, The Mask You Live In, The Empowerment Project, and now The Hunting Ground.
Wednesday, November 18th at 7 pm – York Theater, Elmhurst

The Hunting Ground, 2015
Kirby Dick, Writer/Director & Amy Ziering, Producer
The statistics are staggering. One in five women in college are sexually assaulted, yet only a fraction of these crimes are reported, and even fewer result in punishment for the perpetrators. From the intrepid team behind Academy Award Nominated The Invisible War, comes The Hunting Ground, a piercing, monumental exposé of rape culture on campuses, poised to light a fire under a national debate.
This screening is for women and men. The intention is not to divide, but to come together to discuss sexual assualt, why and how it happens, and what can be done. It’s recommended for parents of girls and boys, high school students, and college students.
The movie begins at 7 pm and it’s 103 minutes. We will facilitate a short discussion following the film and the night will end by or before 9 pm. This is a one-night, one-time showing.
