The Parent’s Group
The Parent’s Group is a therapeutic group designed for open discussion for parents of children and teens. While every parent is an expert at parenting their children many feel alone in their struggle as parents. Some parents look for ideas on how to handle everyday teen issues, others are seeking answers to a particular problem.

1. Why do pre-teens act the way they do.
