Families Thriving Together - Talking Teens Programme
Tuesdays for 4 weeks from 11 February 2025
Teenagers are rewarding, stimulating and fun, but being a parent of one can be stressful and challenging. The Talking Teens Parent Group helps deal with those challenges so you can have a calmer, happier family life. A tried and tested Programme, it helps us think about what we do, why we do it and how it makes us feel and looks at questions that many parents have, like: How can I stop my child always getting the last word? Why do they always sleep in so late? Can I do anything to help them argue less? What’s normal? Why don’t they want to tell me how they’re feeling? Inside every teenager is a child and an adult.
The Four Sessions:
1. Being a parent of a teenager ; The role of parents for teenagers ; Responding to difficult feelings
2. Understanding your teenager ; Understanding teenage development ; Parenting styles ; Praise and criticism
3. Communicating with your teenager ; Talking and listening ; Communicating clearly ; Handling difficult issues
4. Managing conflict ; Rules and boundaries ; Choosing how to respond ; Problem solving
Fully funded for those living in the Elmbridge and Spelthorne Boroughs.

Home Start Guildford
Home Start offers practical and emotional support to parents with young children, in the family home. Home-Start carefully recruits and trains parent volunteers who know how hard it can be to bring up a family. After an initial visit from a member of the staff team, if the family wish to go ahead with support we will seek to find a suitable volunteer who can offer weekly (2-3 hour) visits to the family. Volunteers can offer practical support with young children, help with going out to appointments, toddler groups etc. and over time volunteers and parents can develop trusting relationships which lead to powerful change within the family. Our focus is on Early Intervention and Prevention, supporting families at an early stage to ensure the support we offer has the best possible outcomes for children.
