Parenting Place Toolbox Course: Teens


  • The Hub 13 Agency Lane, SIlverdale New Zealand (map)

The teenage years can be like riding a roller coaster; Toolbox courses aim to take out a few of the nastier twists and turns on the track, and also to help you to hold on and enjoy the ride.

The Tweens and Teens Toolbox is completely realistic – it addresses the serious dangers and problems that teenagers can encounter and gives practical coaching strategies to handle them. But it is also encouraging in that the course never loses sight of the fact that there is so much to enjoy as your children go through this stage.

Toolbox is ideal for parents whose children have not yet reached puberty, or are in the early ‘tween’ stage of adolescence: you won’t be caught unprepared and if your children are already in the midst of the teenage years, there is so much in every session you will be able to use straight away.

What’s covered in the six sessions?

  • Session 1 – Atmosphere
  • Session 2 – Boundaries
  • Session 3 – Communication
  • Session 4 – Discipline
  • Session 5 – Self-esteem
  • Session 6 – Future focus
