Parents prepare us for the future

The journey from childhood to adulthood is full of challenges, growth and change, and parents are our guides and mentors along the way; moulding us into who we will become and helping to shape our dreams and aspirations.

The importance of a support structure

Student leaders understand the importance of family ties and how those relationships influence both their leadership style and their success. They understand people better and are better able to form meaningful friendships and connections with others.

Children learn how to be responsible, caring adults and upstanding citizens of society from the people whom they have the deepest involvement and bond with. Parenting is the most important and challenging job any of us can have

The parenting workshop helps parents understand not only their children’s thoughts, feelings and motives, but also their own. It helps them understand the role that they play in their child’s behaviour; whether it is the example parents set or the underlying issues that parents carry through all their relationships.

Parents become more confident in their decision-making skills as well as receive a better understanding of the teacher's job. They realize the benefits of affection and positive reinforcement over punishments and censure.

Parenting development courses give parents the tools to address their own behaviour and how it might be affecting their child. When you held your newborn for the first time, you probably couldn’t imagine losing your cool; but, as children grow, they push our buttons in ways we never anticipated.

It makes it easier when you realize that all parents struggle with similar problems. If your technique doesn’t seem to be working, having a platform on which you can discuss it is a helpful tool. Though all children are unique in their own way, the challenges are the same. Through parenting workshops, you can discover new techniques and put them into practice to get better results.
