Riding the Storm: for parents of teenagers
Watching your children grow up is rewarding but as they develop opinions and test out their independence it can be a challenge for any parent. This workshop looks at how to open up communication, improve your relationship with your teenager and explore teenage issues.
The course is suitable for all parents and not just those with a young offender in the family, although it is designed specifically for parents with difficult children.
The course is normally run over 6 or 8 sessions, but it can be run at any time that is suitable for you. The course can be accredited by the Open College Network (OCN).
