Parenting girls safely through their teens with author Kim McCabe

Join Kim McCabe, author of ‘From Daughter To Woman’ as she discusses practical ways to make the journey of growing-up safer, kinder and better supported, so that everyone can enjoy the adolescent years.Do not miss this opportunity to reflect on your parenting and gain some tips to forge the kind of relationships you want with your children, even when things get tough. In this seminar Kim will share with you what she has learned in her years of working with preteen and teen girls. She will give you some easy-to-implement practical suggestions and will leave you with plenty of food for thought. Kim has an optimistic view of parents' ability to guide our girls through. These fickle and often frustrating young people can transform into the creators of an inspiring future. Teenagers are great people and, in spite of all the reports on how teens are running into serious difficulties, you can have a great time parenting one through this wonderful stage of life.This talk is for everyone interested in steering their daughters happily through adolescence: parents of daughters age 8 – 18 years, flummoxed grandmothers and caring aunties too, and anyone who works closely with pre-teen and teenage girls. The talk lasts an hour followed by a twenty-minute question and answer session. Best-selling author and psychologist Steve Biddulph says, “I can’t believe how much depth and the range of ideas Kim has put into one book.”“One thing is I know that this is the type of book I can keep dipping in and out for a long time. I found it all insightful, without any preachiness. I was reassured from the outset … this book has helped boost my confidence that I am doing a good job to help [my daughter].” Zoé, Mother of Pre-Teen Girl“Important piece of work. I have never understood the pressures on my daughter until today. It gives me a lot of tools to be a better dad.” Jim, Father of Teen GirlFAQsAre there minimum age requirements to enter the event?This seminar is suitable for adults.Is the talk for Dad’s too?Dads are welcome and encouraged.
