Northwest parenting resource ParentMap’s annual parent lecture series will include a stop in Redmond.

The series, which begins March 2 at Washington Cathedral at 12300 Woodinville Redmond Rd. in Redmond, features a number of prominent child experts including Dr. John Gottman, who will be speaking at the Redmond lecture.

As in past years, the New York Times bestselling author and marriage expert will present two lectures: one on marriage and one on raising children. His Redmond appearance will be “Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child.”

Also presenting are noted child experts Dr. Laura Kastner and Dr. Michael Riera, local educator Julie Metzger and author Dr. Christine Campbell.

Gottman is one of the nation’s most-read and most recognizable family experts. His Redmond lecture will give parents a five-step “emotion coaching” process that will help improve children’s self-confidence, physical health, school performance and social relationships.

The lecture will be from 7-9 p.m. For tickets and more information on the lecture series, visit www.parentmap.com/lectures. Now through March 1, if attendees purchase tickets to six lectures, they will get the seventh lecture free. Single tickets are $20.
