Parents Are The #1 Influence In Their Childs Live This Parent education presentation will equip, encourage and empower parents to effectively communicate with their teenagers about the importance of healthy relationsipips and avoiding high risck behavior. The central theme of parent Effectiveness is parents having the strong and longest-lasting Influence over their children when they cultivate a genuine, loving relationship. Communicate Effectively:   Know what is going on ask them about their day and let do the talking. Talk about the tuff stuff. Be Open:  Encourage them to talk about anything. Be careful not to interrupt, lecture, or overact. Discuss Your values: Children will mirror the values of their parents.  Monitor Your Teen’s Activities:  Unsupervised teens are at risk. Know your teen’s daily routine. Be A Role Model: Be an example set the standard by your lifestyle. Stay Positively Involved:  Show them unconditional love. Be visible show up to everything they do. Making An Impact Rules vs. Relationships While it’s essential to support our teens’ need for Independence, monitoring and supervision continue to be important as our kids mature.  Rules without a relationship will lead to rebellion. Relationships without rules will lead to promiscuity, Risky behavior.  Rules with the relationship will lead to a healthy relationship. Get The Facts! Be transparent about your faith. Just going to church and praying before bedtime will more than likely not be enough of an example to our children. Be willing to answer or investigate their hard questions.  These are valuable opportunities for the family to draw near to God, study His Word, and spend time in prayer asking Him to give answers. Give God a fighting chance to shine!  By living a life of wisdom and faith and encouraging our children to do the same, we set our children up to see God for who He is. Boundaries Teens need to know how far is too far. Without it, they will push the limit most of the time. Students need to know the boundaries, but they also need to see the outcome ahead of time. When boundaries are set and the teen knows them they are more likely to respect them. Set Clear boundaries and expectations. Remember Adolescent brains are not fully DEVELOPED and they really don’t know why!
