Question / Issue |
 |
| I work with young people age 11+ would this parenting course be suitable for parents of this age group? Or can it be adapted? Mandy English |
Answer / Solution |
|
| Hi Mandy, Mellow Parenting could be adapted for older children, the parents'work in the programme is to consider their own experience of having been parented and how that is affecting thier relationship with their child(ren) and that process is an important one at any age, however the other elements of MP such as a video of the parent and child at a mealtime and the afternoon parenting workshop may need some adaptation to reflect the typical issues of older children as opposed to toddlers. The other important part of MP is to have lunch and an activity together so again that part of the programme would need to be changed to teatime and suitable activity maybe, given that children would be in school at lunchtime. Possible though! |
