Difficult Topics
Death, drugs, racism, mental health — the conversations parents dread and children need
Death, drugs, racism, divorce, identity and mental health. Walk into the conversation you have been avoiding.
Children encounter difficult realities before most parents feel ready to address them. Death, violence in the news, racism and discrimination, suicide and mental health crises, family dysfunction, poverty, war — these topics enter children's lives through the media, their peers, and their own experience, whether or not adults prepare them. This course equips parents with the knowledge, language and confidence to have the conversations that matter, at the right time, in the right way.
