Hi, Free-Rangers! I wrote that headline as if I’m so used to “live chats.” As if this is something I do all the time. In truth, this is my first and I have no idea what it’ll be like. But if YOU know what I’m getting myself into and would like to join in, here is the URL:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/discussion/2009/04/24/DI2009042402113.html
I’ll be on from 11 a.m. – noon, Eastern Standard Time, on Monday. Somehow answering questions. If I figure out the techonology. I do thank the Post’s parenting blogger, Stacey Garfinkle, for this opportunity.
I just hope it works.
You can submit questions and comments during the chat or ahead of time, if you’d like. Even now. Meantime, have a lovely rest of your weekend! (Not worrying about YOUR live chat.) L.

Can’t wait!
You will be amazing! And I think FRMoms drink wine!
Have fun – you’ll be awesome!
Don’t worry about it! If it all flubs up…just go outside and play…that’s what I tell my kids.
I wish I could “see” it (what is the right verb?) but as a teacher, I can’t possibly join you at that time. I know you will do great. I hope the audience is huge!
Just in case there is a lull when you don’t have any questions, here is one I would love you to tackle. In your book, you briefly mention that a lot of organizations (Little League, schools, etc) put all kinds of crazy restrictions on kids because they are worried about lawsuits. What can be done about that?
You’ll be great!! Remember the Brady Bunch episode where Jan (I think) was giving a talk somewhere and was out of her mind with nerves. Mr. Brady tells her to picture everyone in their underwear…so you just do the same but add various contemporary talk-radio-listener-accessories to the vision: lattes, Blackberries, treadmills, bluetooths, yoga outfits…Be strong! Your message is VERY important! 🙂
Kudos to you, Lenore!!!! Just tweeted the chat transcripts far and wide. Keep up the great work.
Cheers- Bethe, Free-Range Blogger :o)
