Discover how to create a supportive environment at home and how your behavior can help your tween manage whatever life throws at them as you also explore: -Difficult topics relevant to parents today, such as pornography and self-harm. -Everyday topics include clashes over sleepovers, first phones, homework, and going out with friends. -Content by Dr Angharad Rudkin, who is a child psychology expert, and Tanith Carey, a well-known parenting journalist who writes regularly for the Guardian. Building a strong relationship based on mutual trust and respect will ensure a smooth transition into your child’s teenage years.
