Teenagers Parents' Club

Understanding and supporting your teenager

When you are a teenager's parent, you feel like saying, "It wasn't like that in my day. Yeah, I used to do crazy things, but not like these. It will never be the same, but most importantly, every child is unique, and there are no recipes.

Based on this idea, we want every parent to know how to react to the crises of adolescence, understand their child, and build a healthy family relationship.

Adolescence is the most challenging period in parents' lives, with ups and downs, like a sinusoid from which we can't wait to get out and rest, satisfied with the final result. It is a road that we travel with the teenager. We go through all possible states (fear, sadness, despair, despair, disappointment, anger, helplessness).

We pray that at the end of the road, it will be sunny, it will be a success for both us as parents as well as for the young person who opposed us with a lot of virulence in trying to discover his personality, form his identity and in the end, to find his place and path in society, in his own life.

Intended participants

Parents seeking guidance on navigating adolescence with their teenagers.

Guardians looking to understand and support their teenage wards through the challenges of adolescence.

Caregivers interested in fostering healthy family relationships during the teenage years.

Educators seeking insights into the experiences and needs of teenagers and their families.

Mental health professionals who work with adolescents and their families.

Program outcome

Parents can find quick answers to questions that concern them.

Parents benefit from a safety framework where criticism and judgment are excluded, where they can freely express the problems they face.

Parents are often reluctant to seek the help of a psychologist to discuss their relationship with their children.

The fact that there are other parents with similar problems creates for parents the comfort of being part of a community where they feel supported and understood.

Parents have the option to choose whether to remain anonymous or disclose their identity.

Program outline

This program's goal is to provide invaluable support to each parent, empowering you to build effective and meaningful relationships with your teenagers. Together, we will navigate the complexities of adolescence and discover the most appropriate ways to connect with and understand your growing child.

Group sessions's topics

These are some of the topics we will cover during the meetings.

Also, the themes can be adapted to the challenges parents face.

At the end of each meeting, we will have a question-and-answer session.

Thus, we want to come to the aid of each parent and the need to discover the most appropriate way to relate effectively and clearly with the adolescent.
