Changing gears for the teenage years – Webinar
Many parents discover that the approaches they successfully used when their children were young don’t stand up during the turbulent teenage years.
Well-intentioned advice receives eye rolls and groans. Previous approaches to discipline no longer work, and enjoyable conversations are replaced with conflict, or worse, silence.
In this webinar, Michael Grose discusses the importance of changing parenting gears during, and in the lead up to, the teenage years. He shares the critical shifts parents need to make when raising teenagers.
Given many Prescott families also include teenagers, we thought this would be a useful opportunity to share. Particularly given you can attend FREE of charge (usually $39)
Key learning and discussion points include:
• why giving teenagers information to keep them safe doesn’t work and what to do instead
• how to talk to teens about hard topics so that they take ideas on board
• how to support young people when they are experiencing friendship and other challenges
• why mistakes are an essential part of growing up and what parents can do to minimise harm
• the three stages of adolescence and the parenting approaches that each requires
