Building Teenagers Survival Skills

This discussion topic explores why teenagers sometimes make risky decisions and how they can learn to keep themselves safe while gradually developing independence. Parents are introduced to positive parenting strategies to help their teen plan for situations which may potentially put their health or wellbeing at risk.

Parents are given specific ideas to plan building teenager’s survival skills and explore:

• Why do some teenagers get into trouble?

• Parent traps

• Keeping track

• Identifying risky situations

• Advance planning

• Risk-reduction strategies

• Follow-up review session

We will be delivering the session via Microsoft Teams – joining instructions will be given once you have booked in.
