Parent Engagement Partnership - Michelle Mitchell

Parent Engagement Program

Parenting Teenagers

Guest Speaker: Michelle Mitchell 

 

As a parent, navigating a healthy relationship with your teenager can be challenging if you don't have the proper tools to communicate.  This presentation will offer parenting insights into the developing brain which will guide a discussion about effective communication, setting healthy boundaries, managing emotionally charged moments and championing strengths.

Together we will explore:

• The stages of development that all teenagers experience
• The role of the peer group and how to set realistic expectations
• Ways to maintain connection with teens who aren't communicating
• Establishing fair, healthy boundaries and tips for saying no
• Managing mood swings and overwhelming emotions
• The role of purpose, passions and opportunity
• What to do when they mess up                 
• Mental health, and when to access support                                    

 

When: Thursday 6 June 2024

Time: 7:00pm - 8:30pm

There will be an opportunity to provide a gold coin donation in support of Beyond Blue on arrival.
