Parenting teenagers course

This five session course is being run on Thursday evenings through the Community Education programme at Balerno High School from 21 February to 21 March, 7.30pm to 9.30pm, and is led by Pastoral staff from St Mungo’s Church. Talks are on DVD followed by small group discussions and refreshments. There is no expectation that participants will be Christians, and all discussions will be around practical parenting issues. Come as a couple or on your own, whatever your situation.
