Part 1: How to Support LGBTQ+ Kids (Whether You Know You Have One or Not)
Parenting teenagers can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be. Join Jennifer Boudrye, founder of Parent with C.A.R.E., for an enlightening and interactive workshop designed to equip you with the tools and strategies needed to foster a positive and supportive relationship with your teen.
In Part 1, you will discover: Understanding Identities: The differences between gender identity, gender expression, sexual identity, and sexual orientation, and how a child knows their own identity.
Social Media Insights: Learn how social media can be a supportive tool, rather than a cause for concern.
Crucial Conversations: The three things you need to say if your child comes out to you, and what not to say.
Navigating Coming Out: Understand the coming out process for both you and your child.
Future Prospects: How queer children can live full, joy-filled lives as spouses and parents with the appropriate support.
Jennifer’s approach combines years of experience with practical, easy-to-implement strategies that have transformed countless parent-teen relationships. Whether you're facing communication barriers or simply want to strengthen your bond, this workshop is for you.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from one of the best in the field. Mark your calendars for today, June 5 at 5:30 PM ET, and join us live on your preferred platform.
