About this Event
All behaviour has meaning. Children and young people communicate through their behaviour, especially those who have not acquired language and vocabulary skills to tell the adult what the problem is.
Experiencing different emotions at a time that are strong and overwhelming is very confusing for a young person and may lead to unpredictable or changeable behaviour.
This session is for any parent carer in Hampshire, whether you are an in patient, on the waiting list or just looking to develop your own toolkit on how best to support your young person.
Topics that can be covered
- Pressure and expectations (both real or perceived) or demands (especially being asked to do something they don’t want or feel able to do)
- Hormone fluctuations and developmental changes (going from a baby to infant to child to teenager)
- Pain or feeling unwell (physically or emotionally)
- Unpredictability, uncertainty or change
- Strong emotional states (especially fear, anger or sadness)
- Interactions with others (such as friends, family, teachers or even strangers)
- Significant life events (such as bereavement/ loss, bullying, illness/ accident/ injury, trauma)
A friendly face from the Hampshire Parent Carer Network will be there to meet and greet you with a warm beverage and biscuit where you will have the opportunity to meet fellow parent carers who may be experiencing similar challenges.
