Tuning into Teens Program
THIS PROGRAM IS NOT CURRENTLY RUNNING - KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR UPCOMING PROGRAMS!
Are you a parent or carer of a young person aged between 12-18 and would like to:
- Be better at talking with your teen?
- Be better at understanding your teen?
- Help your teen learn to manage their emotions?
- Help to prevent behaviour problems in your teen?
- Teach your teen to deal with conflict?
Tuning in to Teens shows you how to help your teen develop emotional intelligence.
Adolescents with higher emotional intelligence:
- are more aware, assertive and strong in situations of peer pressure
- have greater success with making friends and are more able to manage conflict with peers
- are more able to cope when upset or angry
- have fewer mental health and substance abuse difficulties
- have more stable and satisfying relationships as adults
- have greater career success – emotional intelligence may be a better predictor of academic and career success than IQ!
