Learn how to talk to pre-teens and teens in free workshop

Shoreline Community Invited

Free Parenting Workshop on Pre-teens and Teens

with Julie Metzger, RN, MN

“Top Ten Conversations to have with your Kids”

Conversations are the building blocks within a family to share ideas, build trust, problem-solve, gather information, and share our stories.

• What are some of the important talks kids and parents can have to continue growing in healthy directions and promote understanding? 
• What do children hope their parents will speak to them about? 
• How do parents encourage their children as they grow and develop to support their skills in decision-making and navigate friendships and challenges?

Parents, teachers and guardians of 4th Grade through High School:

Come to prepare or to enhance your skills for parenting, and for relating to and guiding adolescents.
