Parents: want to help your 7th or 8th grader understand and practice purity, self-restraint, and Christ-like love? Sign up for this program!About this Event
Parents, we know that even the thought of talking to your son or daughter about sex can be ... well ... intimidating. That's why Family Honor is here to help.
If you live in metro Atlanta and have a 7th or 8th grade son or daughter, we encourage you to register for Family Honor's Real Love & Real Life parent-teen program. That's right - it's for you and your son or daughter to attend together! The program will be held at St. Luke Catholic Church on Saturday, February 10. Start time is 8:30 am and the program ends at 4:00 pm.
The $45 (plus tax) registration price includes ALL family members who attend and this one price pays for ALL three sessions. Thus, for mom, dad, and teen (or just dad and teen or just mom and teen or for both parents and two teens) you simply pay for ONE registration. Price also includes books. Love offering will be taken up to help defray cost of lunch, which will be provided on site.
For Session 1, this is a parent only session. Parents and teens will be in separate rooms for the first 2 hours. During the parent only session, our Family Honor Presenters will help you be better prepared to talk about some of today's challenging topics later, with your teen, and you'll get a chance to ask us some questions. (At the same time, teens will be led in fun activities that will help them prepare to join you for the rest of the program.)
For Sessions 2 and 3 that same day, your teen will be with you. Our experienced Family Honor Presenters will facilitate skits, videos, discussion, and questions and answers that cover many topics designed to help you and your teen make your relationship even stronger. Topics include:
> how to communicate more effectively in the family
> how to resist peer pressure
> how to form healthy friendships
> how to develop yourself as a TOTAL person
> how to understand the gift of being created male and female; the reproductive process; and appreciating our fertility (For modesty, moms and daughters in one room; dads and sons in another. PowerPoints with basic line drawings of male and female anatomy are shown.)
You'll hear about God's gift of sexuality and the virtue of purity in a way that is hopeful, meaningful, and that respects the dignity of participants.
Parents, by attending this program together with your teen, you'll be strengthening your bond with them and letting them know they can come to you to talk about ANYTHING.
Join with other parents and teens in an atmosphere that is fun, faithfully Catholic, and that offers true freedom in Christ to help your teen become the person God is calling them to be!
