			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How to Grow Your Geek: Parenting and More is not just for parents. It is for any of you who really want to enjoy sharing your pastimes with younger friends or family members. Hosted by Susie the Southern Geek, with occasional help from her kids, HTGYG covers lots of issues important to current and would-be parents such as health and education, as well as fun topics such as age-appropriate television, books and movies to share with any young person. Board games that are fun and educational are also reviewed, as well as websites and video/computer games. Susie also covers important cultural events, and how to help your kids enjoy them while learning from them. She also answers email and welcomes topic ideas and helpful advice and suggestions for shows.</p>
<p>Susie earned a Master of Science degree in clinical psychology, with specialties in health education and behavioral medicine, and very nearly earned her Ph.D., before realizing that she didn’t really enjoy being a therapist. She did enjoy her teaching experiences as a graduate assistant, and looked for more opportunities to teach, starting with psychology at a community college. She stopped working when her first child was born, and has, surprisingly, been happily at home ever since. She now spends a good deal of her time working with the PTA at her children’s elementary school, and enjoys working with other people’s kids in addition to her own “little geeklings.”</p>
<p>Susan is also a life-long sci-fi, fantasy and science geek, and loves to incorporate her favorite hobbies into her current career of raising her kids. She believes that including her kids not only strengthens her relationship with them, but also benefits their development of useful skills such as critical thinking, logic, creativity and reading comprehension, just to name a few. She also is a really big goofball, and tries not to take anything too seriously, especially her kids and herself!</p>
