MORE THAN JUST
PARENTING “METHODS”
PARENT SUPPORT CLASS - 5 Sessions
Our Teenagers Are Home: Now What Do WE Do?
Are you feeling overwhelmed with this situation? Are your teenagers hiding out in their rooms playing video games all day? Are your teens content to let you do all the housework? (Are they running the house instead of you?)
You’re not alone - that’s the state many families/households are in! Most of us did not receive the parenting training that allows us to firmly, AND LOVINGLY, guide and direct our children to be productive and happy members of our household and the community.
In this 5 session class + support group you will learn and be supported in implementing changes that will empower you as a parent and will help your children feel more loved, understood and supported.
