P-2 TRUE PARENT & CARER SESSION  DATE CLAIMER -  Term 3 Wk 1 15^th of July @ 5 pm

Children begin learning about relationships and sexuality early on from their family and caregivers. This learning helps children to develop a healthy sense of themselves and the world around them. 

Children and young people who have accurate and clear information about bodies, relationships and sexuality are more likely to:

• Feel positive about themselves and their bodies
• Be less vulnerable to sexual abuse and exploitation
• Understand appropriate and inappropriate behaviour

True’s Parent and Carers Information Sessions help you support the young people in your life and grow your confidence in discussions with the children in your care.

DON’T FOCUS ON HAPPINESS, HELP BUILD RESILIENCE INSTEAD

Loved this article from Neuropsych & hopefully it resonates with some of you… follow the link to read in detail.

KEY Takeaways INCLUDE:-

• Because parents want what is best for their children, they often put too much focus on their happiness.  
• But happiness emerges from resilience, which helps children regulate difficult emotions and stressful situations. 
• Resilience is not a fixed trait. It’s a skill parents can help children develop.

Thank you,
