What should you do if your child is being bullied, or if they are the one doing the bullying?

Northern Beaches Council will address this very important topic at a webinar on Monday 20 August 2018 from 7.30 to 9pm. The webinar is suitable for parents of 10 to 18 year olds.

Leading parenting expert Dr Justin Coulson from Happy Families will help parents develop strategies to assist their children to build positive connections.

Mayor Michael Regan encouraged parents who have children experiencing problems with bullying to join the webinar.

“Council covers a large area on the northern beaches, and through webinars, we can reach people who are unable to travel, or who find it more convenient to participate in the information session from home.”

“This is particularly so on a subject such as bullying where some parents may wish to work through the issue privately.”

“A child’s development can be marred by bullying, so it’s very important that parents have a forum where they can work through strategies to deal with it. At the same time, parents who have a child doing the bullying may be equally anxious to find help,” Mayor Regan said.

The webinar will be interactive and parents can submit questions anonymously. The webinar is free but registration is essential.
