Parenting Top Tips from Child Counselling Charity 

​

Many parents feel that parenting has never been so … complicated. At Fegans we are often helping parents who feel overwhelmed juggling busy lives with badly behaved children and teens. Additional challenges such as the breakdown of family life and the onset of social media issues mean that our parent support workers are often called out to support parents at the end of their tether. So we have put together some of our top tips for parenting, including a short mini course to help you with some of the most common issues.

We would love to be able to offer our services for free. Sadly we rely on donations so need to charge to cover our costs.
