Responsive Parenting Season 2 – Stage 2: Introducing The Seminar “Parental Resilience”
Following the successful completion of Stage 1 – Parental Happiness, with the core message that “Parents’ happiness is a prerequisite for children’s healthy, sustainable emotional development and lifelong well-being”, Responsive Parenting Season 2 now moves forward with Stage 2: “Parental Resilience.”
This stage places a strong focus on strengthening parents’ inner resources and enhancing resilience—the capacity to recover, adapt, and remain emotionally steady while accompanying children through their growth journey.
Happiness is a shared aspiration for all parents. Yet alongside joy and fulfillment, parenting also comes with ongoing pressures, expectations, and emotional fatigue. Much like a spring that needs elasticity to return to balance after being compressed, parents, too, need resilience to maintain inner stability and serve as a secure, steady anchor for their children.
At the Stage 2 Seminar, parents will explore three core areas—moving from awareness and understanding to practical application:
- From “Burnout” to “Understanding”
Parents will take part in a Parental Burnout assessment to better recognize their own levels of overload through an expert-informed lens. This process highlights the role of resilience in parenting and its impact on children’s emotional well-being. - From “Pressure” to “Balance”
Experts will unpack key psychological mechanisms that deplete emotional resources and introduce strategies for emotional regulation to help parents sustain balance and inner strength. - From “Theory” to “Practice”
Through interactive workshops and guided psychological exercises, parents will translate insights into practical skills for self-care and empathetic communication with their children.
The workshop brings together a panel of leading experts:
- Dr. Nguyen Thi Dieu Anh – Clinical Psychologist, Lecturer, Faculty of Psychology, University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Ho Chi Minh City
- MSc, MD, Specialist Level I, Resident Doctor Nguyen Trung Nghia – Head of Psychiatry Department, Vinmec International General Hospital
- Dr. Khuc Nang Toan – School Psychology Specialist, Director of the School Psychology Program, Vinschool Education System
Date & Time: 9:00–12:00, Sunday, January 18, 2026
Venue: Multi-purpose Hall, Vinschool Grand Park (Cambridge Campus), Long Binh Ward, Ho Chi Minh City
As a cornerstone activity of Stage 2, the January 18 workshop supports parents in gradually building sustainable inner strength to accompany their children with clarity and resilience. Join Vinschool in activating your inner “spring” to make the parenting journey more balanced, fulfilling, and meaningful.
