Can you relate to any of these scenarios?

You work long hours, on weekends there are the chores that have been lined up during the week, you spend time driving the kids to their weekend activities, balancing the budget, doing the shopping. You feel exhausted and literally rushed off your feet; always trying to meet the demands of every day life and you wonder… is there more to life than this?

Your teenage son has just walked in the door. You desperately want to talk with him but he just grunts.

After he has cleaned the leftovers out of the fridge he stalks to his room, not returning until dinner, and then it is straight back to his room or ‘out’ with mates for a few hours.

You can see that your boy is becoming a stranger and the gap is widening. How can you talk with him? What can you do? 

Believe it on not, teenagers do want to talk with their parents but years of miscommunication often causes them to clam up, just when they need their parents most.

Learning to communicate with children and teenagers is a skill that can easily be learned. It is a skill that is easy when you know how. Call me and I'll empower you with new practical ideas.

The children have left home and your husband is at work. You feel a little empty inside.

For years you have put everyone else’s needs first but now you are not sure what you want to do with your time and the rest of your life. You feel as if you have lost your identity as a person and lost your passion for life. 

There is a wonderful life awaiting you after your children are no longer entirely dependent on you. There are steps that you can take to find yourself again and work out exactly what it is that you want from life.  I know. I've been there and now I'm living the life I want. Call me and I'll explain how.

Your younger daughter is becoming very quiet and teary.

She used to like school but now she tries to avoid going. You know she is not sick. You keep her home for a day and you talk. She tells you she is being bullied at school. 

Children with low self esteem often attract these situations into their lives. You have done all that you can to create a safe environment but now it is up to her. She is going to need help and if you knew how to help her you would no longer have this situation.

It may be time for her to talk with someone who is impartial but understands these situations and to give her practical assistance so that she doesn't have to face these terrifying and humiliating situations again.
