A one-day Children in Wales course

The teenage years can present the greatest challenges for parents and family members. Understanding the challenge young people themselves are facing provides both parents and professionals with the tools they need to allow teenagers to develop, whilst at the same time still keeping them safe from the worst excesses of teenage behaviour. The course is for both practitioners working directly with teenagers, and those involved in family support services.

The course will include:

– An exploration of teenage development
– Why modern society makes this hard, and what can be done to support teenagers
– The role of both mothers and fathers
– Ways to improve communication with teenagers
– Strategies to manage teenage behaviour
