Parent Engagement Program
Parenting Teenagers
Guest Speaker: Michelle Mitchell
As a parent, navigating a healthy relationship with your teenager can be challenging if you don't have the proper tools to communicate. This presentation will offer parenting insights into the developing brain which will guide a discussion about effective communication, setting healthy boundaries, managing emotionally charged moments and championing strengths.
Together we will explore:
- The stages of development that all teenagers experience
- The role of the peer group and how to set realistic expectations
- Ways to maintain connection with teens who aren't communicating
- Establishing fair, healthy boundaries and tips for saying no
- Managing mood swings and overwhelming emotions
- The role of purpose, passions and opportunity
- What to do when they mess up
- Mental health, and when to access support

Time: 7:00pm - 8:30pm
