"Parents need to focus less on enforcing rules and more on developing their kids' independence if they want to help them handle real-world pressures", says family coach Yvonne Godfrey.

Yvonne Godfrey - parenting guru, award-winning author, speaker, media personality and founder/director of MIOMO ('Making It On My Own') will be joining us in Hawke’s Bay for a special parents’ evening, next Wednesday.

Yvonne will share her expert advice on how to 'Raise Independent Tweens and Teens' and help parents discover:

- How to stop the nagging and gain co-operation
- Parenting traps and how to avoid them
- How to develop resilient kids

This is a community event suitable for parents, caregivers and educators - tickets available now.

Date: Wednesday, 12 June
Venue: The Blyth Performing Arts Centre, Iona College
Time: 7:30 - 9:00PM
