An eight-week course focusing on improving the relationship with your teens.
"Really knowledgeable and empathetic! Fantastic course. It has really helped me become more mindful and parenting has become much much lovelier and home life & the kids much smoother and drama-free" - Parenting course participant, Term 1, 2018.
The following topics will be covered in this course:
• How teenage brain changes impact behaviour and why parents may be frustrated in their attempts to communicate
• How the human brain responds to stress and what this means for parenting
• Ways we can view long term human relationships and how as children and as adults we are motivated to seek or avoid contact
• Ways we can view family dynamics and respond differently.
Depending on participants’ needs and the time we have available in this eight-week course, we can also add a number of other topics including:
• Understanding discipline and limit-setting
• The importance of sleep and nutrition for the teen
• The impact of high use of online gaming and social media and management of this
• Drug and alcohol impacts and our role as parents
• Sexuality, dating, and supporting teens appropriately
Our Parent Help course initiates helpful changes through using a positive, empathetic, and compassionate engagement with the group (i.e. a therapeutic approach). This helps to create a safe space in which group members are able to share their own family dynamics and concerns.
"Has changed my opinion of my daughter to such an extent it feels like a miracle!" - Parenting course participant, Term 1 2017
The course is for parents of teenagers. Spaces are limited and registrations essential. Please email office@parenthelp.org.nz, call us on 04 802 5767 or visit our website www.parenthelp.org.nz.
