The results from our third Parenting Today in Victoria survey have been released – and parents are telling us they are under pressure and can struggle to find the time to recharge. But the good news is 90% find parenting rewarding. Full survey results: https://t.co/SvSqOT08Ym

Regularly recharging can help us to be more sensitive and responsive to our children’s needs.
Our research shows parents enjoy their role in parenting, but they also say they struggle to look after themselves. More info about how parents are faring here: https://t.co/vAF6pexJ1a

James' quote is a really nice articulation of this key idea! Supporting parents to learn new skills as their families grow and change is often the most effective way to help children thrive.

"My most helpful tip was from the Parenting Research Centre. Their advice was that parenting should be considered a skill, not an innate ability (which often leads to moral judgement of good and bad parents – and therefore people)." – James

Such an engaging presentation #ICEPS2023 format. Concluding comments from Prof Ron Prinz:

"Let parents achieve their own goals, not the practitioner's goals."

And love this quote from guest panel member: "
[Parents already have a] PhD in parenting" 👩‍🎓

[Derek McCormack @dermcc]

A great Day 2 panel discussion. So relevant to anyone providing primary prevention to parents on children's emotions and behaviours. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official

Panel discussion now at #ICEPS2023 - Equipping parents with skills that can be flexibility applied to supporting a child’s social and emotional wellbeing & physical health makes sense – parents don’t necessarily think of physical health needs separately from emotional needs.

[Michelle Harrison @_M_S_Harrison]

Love a good panel discussion - this one is virtual at #ICEPS2023 on tackling children's mental and physical health needs through integrating approaches to supporting parents
