PARENT ED PROGRAM
TOMORROW'S FORECAST - Groom Teens for their Future Independence
How involved should you be in your child’s homework environment?
How much time should you allow your teen to spend with someone of the opposite sex?
Have you heard, “But everyone else can do it…” or “NO one else…”
Is your child permanently attached to an electronic device?
How can we enable our children to build the confidence and knowledge necessary to make healthy choices?
How far should you stretch your child’s limits and boundaries?
The relationship you have nurtured with your middle school child will evolve over the next few years. As children move into adolescence and strive for independence, parents often struggle with how to maintain parental authority while encouraging their teens to become more responsible and independent. Join other interested parents for discussion on preparing your middle school student for high school.
