CLUB IN A CIRCLE (PARENT CLUB)
In the “Room for Conversation”, we are launching a program for parents of teenagers, and for those whose children are just approaching their teen years (around 12 years old).
.
The idea is to create a safe circle where all participants are equally valued and focused on developing relationships based on respect, trust, and mutual support. In this circle, participants will explore their roles as parents and work on improving the knowledge and skills needed to build quality relationships with their teens. These processes will be guided by a facilitator in collaboration with professionals who support children and families.
.
Respecting the individuality of each child, each parent, and their relationship, participants will be offered different strategies for handling challenging situations, rather than ready-made solutions.
Discussion prompts will come from participants’ personal experiences, examples from workshop facilitators and experts, as well as current events, films, series, comics, and books.
.
Some of the topics we will cover:
.
-Setting boundaries
-Communication with teenagers – How can I speak so my child listens? How can I listen so my child speaks?
-Managing emotions – What do I do when I feel anger, sadness, or fear? What do I do when my child feels angry, sad, or afraid?
-Conflict zone – Problem-solving techniques
