I write lessons for a weekly parenting class for at-risk parents. I have done challenging behaviors (biting, temper tantrums), discipline vs. punishment, parenting style, money and budgeting, nutrition, conflict resolution... I need some more ideas on topics, any thoughts?
Re: Parenting class topics?
how to handle a sick child
what to feed them
when to call dr/hospital
what kind and dose of medication is ok and when
etc. etc
how to handle a crying baby (ie never shake a baby)
how a baby changes your relationship with your SO
Developmental stages
best practices for how to transition a child to a new home, location etc
maintaining stable parent relationships

the public dimensions of parenting - what do you do in public when another kid... hits your kid, takes their toy, blocks a fun ride.
BRAIN development is huge and could be multiple classes...from reading, talking, engaging their kids. That's huge - the social class barriers on how people view childhood and children explains a lot about why some kids, by age 5, have a much bigger vocabulary and are statistically more likely to succeed.
