Teenage Years Toolbox Course – Online (Hamilton)
May 28 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm $75
What you will learn
In six sessions, typically run over six weeks, the Teen years Toolbox will support you on your journey of letting go and handing over some of the controls as your young person learns to fly solo. Although the teen years can be challenging, they can also be some of the best years of your life – and theirs! Toolbox covers a range of topics, including the importance of love and connection, different parenting styles, understanding your teenager and their big feelings, discipline, boundaries and lots more.
This course is a newer version of our Tweens and Teens Toolbox course. Please note that this course is aimed specifically at parents of teenagers 13 – 18 years.
What’s covered in the six sessions?
Session 1 Love is the foundation
Session 2 Parents
Session 3 Stronger, deeper, closer
Session 4 Heart-led parenting
Session 5 Discipline without shouting, force or fluster
Session 6 Putting it all together
Cost and payment
The cost is $75 per person or $110 per couple. However, our desire is that cost would never be a barrier, and we’d still love you to join us if you’re unable to contribute in this way. Get in touch, and we’ll get you booked in.

This course will be running online (via Zoom) until further notice.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
