Parenting teens can be thrilling, frightening, frustrating, and confusing (but certainly not boring!).
How do their brains work? 
What’s more important – connection, or boundaries?

What parenting strategies work better than others?

How do our teens learn to take responsibility for their choices?

What if things aren’t turning out the way I’d hoped they would?

How can I get the support I need as a parent?

Come along to listen, learn, and discuss….



This is a FREE talk (Koha donation) — you are warmly invited to come along and be encouraged, gain immense wisdom and have a consolatory cuppa tea!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
