Are you finding your child's behaviour difficult? Would you like to explore the reasons why care-experienced tamariki can regularly be confrontational? We will discuss different ways of adjusting reactions to avoid challenging behaviours, such as lying and stealing.

This course will help you understand why tamariki adopt behaviours, such as confrontation, and why they often appear to lack a sense of guilt and remorse. This will improve your relationship and the child will feel understood.

You will learn how to manage these intimidating interactions and understand why children have unconsciously developed this way of being, as well as discover what they are really telling you through their behaviour and how you can respond in a way that provides for a calmer outcome.

Learning Objectives:

  1. To discover how to step aside rather than getting pulled into confrontations.
  2. To explore why children engage in controlling behaviours.
  3. To understand why tamariki lie and steal, and how to help them recognise the impact this has on them and those around them.

The sessions are held on the following dates:

  • Session 1 10/02/2025 from 07:30 PM to 09:00 PM
  • Session 2 11/02/2025 from 07:30 PM to 09:00 PM

    • This workshop will be delivered in two online sessions. Participants are required to attend both sessions to receive a certificate of completion.
