Living with teens course

A "Living with Teens" evening course for parents of teenagers will be held each Thursday for six weeks at Umina Uniting Church starting on May 10 until June 14.

The course will run from 7pm to 9pm.

Family worker Ms Sue Tancred said the course was facilitated by Unitingcare Burnside RAPT (Reconnecting Adolescents and Parents Team) and aimed to provide parents with basic tools to help them maintain good relationships and communication with their children throughout their teenage years.

"The course covers topics such as normal development of teenagers, discipline, communication skills, self-esteem and sexuality and drug and alcohol issues," Ms Tancred said.

Ms Tancred said there was no charge for the course and that childcare was not available.

"Supper will be provided," Ms Tancred said.

For bookings, telephone Ms Tancred on 4341 0793.
