Bullying and Mental Health Case Study

Bullying can take many forms, and is always a matter to be taken seriously. It’s essential for parents to understand that bullying incidents can severely undermine mental health, in some cases leading to self-harming or risk-taking behaviour – as this real life story illustrates.

Contraception and Safer Sex

While sexually active teens are starting to show more responsibility around contraception and safer sex, up-to-date and informed advice is vital to helping them make the better decisions around these issues. It’s important for parents and carers to know the facts and be able to discuss the various contraceptive and protective methods available.

Respecting Others

Children who learn to respect others are well placed to do the same when they attend school, develop friendships and establish romantic relationships. Parents and carers play a crucial role through modelling behaviour and providing advice and boundaries. A solid foundation in moral and ethical behaviour will help them to develop and maintain respectful connections with others throughout their lives.
