Information on parenting stress

Posted on September 9, 2008, 2:02pm

An information session to help ease the stress of parenting will be offered at New Life Counselling and Training on Penola Road on Saturday.

The strain power struggles between parents are children can cause and its negative impact on families, schools and the community, will be discussed.

New Life Counselling and Training director Ben Ramsay said many parents felt powerless, stressed and confused.

“The family is where we learn so much about the world, social interactions, self-esteem and confidence and parenting is a vital link and something that often doesn’t come naturally,” Mr Ramsay said.

“We normally parent by doing what our parents did, or the exact opposite, but what if neither are working, where then do you go?”

Mr Ramsay said there were positive guidelines and boundaries parents could set to ease stress at home.

To register for the Wisdom in Parenting information session, phone Mr Ramsay on 8725 3542 or 0424 027 373.
