Do you wonder how to open the door for conversation with your child, who seems to be changing rapidly — and responding with BIG emotions even more rapidly — who communicates primarily through social media, and who seems to be evolving into someone you aren’t sure you really know?

Do you need help finding ways to approach them so they actually listen? You are not alone.

This presentation is designed to support parents in navigating some of the difficult topics of adolescence, including body changes, emerging sexuality, and increasing peer relationships. Parents will learn concrete strategies to support their child and practice skills to keep communication open.

This program is open to the public and is part of the District 34 ParentConnect Program. D34 ParentConnect is the parent education initiative designed to provide ongoing opportunities for parents to learn and connect throughout the year. It has been a partnership between District 34 and the Family Service Center (FSC) and, new in 2022-2023, look for important parent programs from GNCY!
