Parents Learning From Parents
"The facilitator was a parent too - not an authoritative figure sitting at a desk and chair at the front"
We learn from each other
Parent Network Scotland is run by parents for parents. All our courses are run by parents who have been course-members themselves before they trained to become Parent Network Scotland facilitators.
We won't tell you what to do
Parent Network Scotland will not tell you what you ought to do as a parent or blame you for doing things wrong. Our aim is to offer you new skills and support so that you can get on better with your children - in your own way.
Parents are experts on their own children
One thing our courses are about is pooling that expertise.
"I thought I was the only parent to feel this way."
"I hope other people who felt the same way I did before the course - isolated, depressed, no hope - have the same change I got!"
"I have gained confidence from learning that my experiences are not unique."
