Who is Parenting 2.0?
Replace “Occupy” with “Exemplify” and you have the formula for Parenting 2.0 (P20). Parenting 2.0 is an international consciousness movement that facilitates positive change in every avenue of human interaction by nurturing a more proactive Life Skills educational process.
What are Life Skills?
Parenting 2.0 defines “Life Skills” as
All the non-academic foundational skills human beings learn and utilize to thrive individually and commune optimally with others.
What are Life Skills Educators?
Anyone that teaches others non-academic Life Skills – consciously or unconsciously. Every adult on the planet is in some manner teaching others Life Skills and is, therefore, a Life Skills Educator. P20 attracts those who are conscious, intentional, and collaborative in their roles.
What is the Life Skills Report Card?
The Life Skills Report Card is a communication tool similar in concept to academic report cards.
Primary Categories on the Life Skills Report Card include:
- Personal Care
- Organizational
- Respect for Self and Others
- Communication
- Social
The P20 Mission
Parenting 2.0 supports parents, professionals, and other primary caregivers in their role as Life Skills Educators. Our goal is that one day children’s LSA (Life Skills Average) will be as appreciated as their GPA (Grade Point Average).
LinkedIn’s Top Ranked Parenting Group
Life Skills Educators began rallying around the Parenting 2.0 mission on LinkedIn in 2009. Today, Parenting 2.0 is LinkedIn’s top ranked parenting group, unifying nearly 3000 Life Skills Educators in over sixty countries.
P20 Talks
In 2012, P20 made history by holding the first professional conference to recognize Life Skills as distinct, foundational, skill sets teachable by third party educators, P20 Talks. The highlight of P20 Talks 2012 was the unveiling of Parenting 2.0′s community service arm, The Global Presence. The Global Presence is committed to honoring and supporting those serving on the front lines raising humanity as valiantly as we support those serving on the front lines in battle.
In August of 2013, Parenting 2.0 members are holding regional gatherings in cities around the globe. Recognized with the title Global Presence Ambassadors, these passionate P20 humanitarians will link arms with like-minded professionals in their communities and expand service to individuals and families. In July 2014, Parenting 2.0 will host its second combined international conference in Sydney, Australia.
