Parent-teen Connection (Two Week Course)

We know that adolescence can be a time of turmoil and change - for both children and their parents. Good behaviour in teenagers starts with a warm relationship and positive communication. There are plenty of things you can do to maintain a strong relationship and stay connected. This TWO week course will provide you with a practical 'how-to- guide to help you understand your teen's behaviour and give you some skills to manage challenges effectively.

Topics this two-week course will include are:
- the tasks of adolescence;
- how your teen's developing brain affects their thinking and behaviour;
- developing a helpful perspective on adolescence;
- different parenting styles and approaches;
- communication in a way that teenagers understand;
- the emotional challenges that occur during adolescence;
- active listening skills;
- ways to stay connected;
- how to respond rather than react to challenging behaviours;
- how to have a difficult conversation with your teen.

Concession rate available.
