Tuning into Teens Program

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!
