Quick answer
Many parents find that their children are growing up with very different expectations from the ones they grew up with. This group helps parents understand those differences, communicate in ways teens will listen to, set loving and consistent limits, and handle conflict about school, friendships, dating, careers and screen time without losing connection.
This group is now forming. Register your interest and we will contact you with dates, times and fees.
What we cover

Listening, curiosity and conversations that do not turn into lectures.
Consistent, respectful limits without harsh punishment.
Supporting achievement while protecting mental health.
Screens, social media, dating and independence.
Managing your own stress, guilt and worry.
Yes. Parents and other caregivers, such as grandparents, are welcome.

The group is forming now. Register your interest and we will contact you when dates are confirmed.
