Family Path – Growing into a compassionate family
How can I help teenagers manage their daily lives? And how can I help young people live according to their own values and be compassionate towards themselves and others?
Welcome to a remote parents’ meeting for guardians of pupils in grades 6–9 on Tuesday 10 October 2023 from 18:00 to 19:30. The meeting will be held via Teams. Click here to join the meeting(external link, opens in a new window)
The aim is to provide guardians with information, peer support and tools to support young people’s management of their daily lives and help young people live according to their own values. In addition, the aim of the parents' meeting is to provide support for strengthening compassionate interaction at home and at school.
There is no need to introduce yourself or keep the camera on during the meeting.
The event is about sharing information and discussing different things through families’ anonymous stories. Commenting and exchanging ideas is voluntary and is carried out anonymously on the electronic Flinga discussion platform. At the end of the event, you can give feedback by filling in an online survey.
Come and join us!
