Family Planning
Victoria has a wealth of experience in talking to young people
about sexuality. Parents, carers and other interested adults
are invited to come along and explore practical and easy ways
to ensure they can talk to children and young adults about
issues of puberty, sex, relationships, etc. One workshop can
make a significant difference to how comfortable you feel
in dealing with these issues!
FPV runs a
number of parent workshops at its Box Hill premises and is
able to deliver the same programs at schools, community groups
and other locations. Examples of programs include:
Sexuality
& the Sandpit
- An important workshop, which
looks at how parents can be effective in aspects of sexuality
for pre-school children. What is appropriate at this age,
what are the stages of sexual development, how can you become
an approachable parent right from the start?
Puberty,
Pimples and Periods
- A fun workshop for mothers/caregivers
and their daughters aged 9-13 years. Learn how to cope with
the physical and emotional changes of puberty and explore
issues together such as body image and peer pressure.
SOS
— Sexuality of Our Sons
- A workshop for fathers/caregivers
and their sons aged 10-14 years. Take a look at the changes
that occur at puberty and join in some fun activities
to
look at those changes which impact most on the development
of young men.
Not
Just the Birds and The Bees
- A relaxed approach to exploring
how to talk with your primary aged child comfortably about
sex. The session will include strategies on how to raise
difficult subjects and answer embarrassing questions.
Handling
Hormones
- Adolescence is a time of
change and challenges. Join other parents and caregivers
and discuss ways to talk about sex & relationships,
raise sensitive issues and cope with your teenager’s
developing sexuality. Great for parents/carers of children
aged 13-17 years.
