Parenting programmes at Parentline Manawatu
We're now taking registrations from people interested in attending our Term 3 programmes - do contact us on 08004326459 (freecalling) to register. We can also provide you with referral forms for the Incredible Years (and talk with you about eligibility) which has an entry point in August and goes over 14 weeks. Parenting through Separation programmes are also provided here over two weeknight evenings (once a month). Triple P for parents of teens looks quite full for next term but let us know if you're wanting to attend. Check out our website and feel free to contact us through there if that suits you. We could also be providing some Triple P discussion groups and the Anxiety workshop that we do for parents from time to time. Counselling is also available for those of you looking for some 1:1 support. This is no cost/low cost and by appointment.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
