About this event
Who is this course for?
For parents of children aged 10-13 (or soon to be). This course will provide parents with practical knowledge and skills for enjoying this stage of parenting while raising a happy family. The course is designed for both husband and wife to attend together and participate in each session.
About the course
Pre-Adolescence is a course developed by professionals at the International Federation for Family Development (IFFD). This course is meant to give confidence and practical assistance to parents, who are the first educators of their children.
The pre-adolescence developmental stage is a crucial moment for kids and parents. The kids are in a gap between childhood and adulthood. They are still kids but longing to be grown-up and have freedom. Parents are dealing with the emotions and physical changes in their children that come with puberty. They have a wonderful opportunity to develop and keep a close relationship with their kids that will last through their teen years.
The topics in this course will be discussed using the case-study method (pioneered by the Harvard Business School). This will provide you and your spouse with a practical and objective framework with which to approach a variety of situations you may encounter in family life.
There are 6 General sessions and 5 Small Group study meetings. Each General Session will have a trained moderator, who has a focus in that particular topic of parenting.
Join us for a fabulous course and an opportunity to network with other parents!
Cost
$150 CAD per couple. The course fee includes course materials.
