In response to our News Flash we've received several emails from women - caring for ill parents, frustrated by their grown children who only call when they need a favor, challenged by relationships with new daughters-in-law. We recognize that many of you are new to blogging. In fact, we are in the midst of our own learning curve. We encourage you to get familiar with the process and add your comments directly.

We are now enrolling women in the Los Angeles area in workshops for the Sandwich Generation. Topics include "Two Cheers for the Empty Nest," "Guess Who's Parenting Aging Parents, " "Together Again, for the First Time."

We are looking for your comments about the relationship issues you are facing and how you are handling your family in flux.

Please contact us if you are interested in participating in our workshops.
