This parenting programme is for parents of teenagers and is a practical and positive guide to managing problems, while promoting young people's confidence.
The programme looks at how parents can connect and also build good relationships with their teenagers.

The  Parents Plus Programme hopes to help you:
  • Get to know and connect with your teenager
  • Communicate effectively
  • Negotiate rules and boundaries
  • Teach teenagers responsibility
  • Manage conflict
  • Solve problems together
The course does not propose/promise to find the magic answers, but hopes to help parents to gain the support of other parents and to find down-to-earth solutions to difficult situations. The focus of the course is positive and aims to build on your strengths as a parent and what you are already doing right.
