Family Links is an emotional health charity who have trained Warwickshire County staff to deliver their evidence based programs to support parenting. They recognise that parenting can be a hard role and when there is tension or conflict between parents this can be even harder.
The groups focus on relationships within the family and in particular the influence of parental relationships on children, including when there might be conflict and tension.
The word “parents” is used to refer to anyone in a parenting role, including foster carers, grandparents, etc.
Each week includes some presentation of theory, some opportunities for discussion about how the theory relates to parents’ own experiences, and a practical strategy, or strategies, to apply in their own situations at home.
The key aims of the sessions are to support parenting through developing the relationship between parents/carers and children by:
- Exploring the importance of positive relationships within families.
- Developing parents’ understanding of the importance of the 4 constructs to support their parenting.
- Developing parents’ understanding of the impact of their interpersonal relationships on children and young people.
- Promoting positive approaches to reducing parental conflict.
- Providing an opportunity for parents to share their experiences with others.
