The Parenting Teenagers Course

What is The Parenting Teenagers Course?

The Parenting Teenagers Course is for any parents, step-parents, or carers of children aged 11 – 18 years.

Why do the course?

  • Parenting teenagers is harder than ever for most parents today
  • No role we undertake in life is more important than parenting

We are the main influence on our teenagers’ future. Discovering we are not alone in the challenges we face and picking up ideas from other parents can make a huge difference. Meeting our teenagers’ deepest needs, setting healthy boundaries, helping to develop their emotional health and teaching them how to make good choices takes skill and dedication. Taking time to reflect on our end goal can help us to build our relationship with our teenagers now.

Each evening will begin at 7.30 pm with dinner followed by a talk, with opportunities for discussion in small groups. Childcare is not provided but we would love to encourage you to try and attend with whoever you are parenting with.

We really loved the way the teaching moved quickly through lots of different expert opinions. And then we had such great fun in our group – it was so refreshing to hear other people struggled with the same things we do!

The course runs for 5 Tuesdays starting 23rd April 2013 at 7:30pm including dinner.  There is no cost for this course, however we welcome donations to contribute for food and materials.
