Building responsibility and improving relationships between parents and teenagers will be the focus of a series of discussions beginning Wednesday April 20th, 7:00 P.M. at Plainfield South High School. Meetings will continue every Wednesday at the same time through June 1st. The program is being sponsored by the Student Services Department and will be facilitated by Josh Bloodgood, School Social Worker, and Ronda Jenkins, School Counselor. The discussions will be based on the Systematic Training for Effective Parenting of Teens (STEP/Teen).
STEP/ Teen is a sequel to Systematic Training for Effective Parenting (STEP), the most widely used parent education program in the country. STEP/Teen encourages mutual respect between parents and teens. It leads to increased cooperation, more effective communication and a more responsible, self-reliant attitude among teenagers.
