Understanding puberty: Seminar for parents in the Obernburg community center!
Puberty is not only an exciting but also a challenging time for many. In order to support parents with children aged 11 to 17 during this often turbulent phase, the Miltenberg district office is organizing a seminar entitled“Puberty – normal madness”. This will take place on Tuesday, February 24th, from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Obernburg community center (Untere Wallstraße 24). The qualified social worker Maria Hohm from the educational advice center will lead the event and give valuable tips on how parents can get off to a better start in this intensive phase of life.
Puberty not only brings changes for teenagers, but it also tests parents. Moody behavior and withdrawal are just some of the common challenges that arise during this time. Understandably, these changes can cause both emotional and practical difficulties. According to Puberty Compass, it is important to show understanding and empathy for the feelings of young people. Often enough, parents take their children's moods personally, but it is advisable to give them space and be patient while the teenager sorts out their own feelings and opens up.
Important basis for discussion
The challenges in everyday life should not be underestimated. Common communication problems can arise between parents and teenagers, leading to arguments and misunderstandings. A main focus of the seminar will therefore be to educate parents about how they can communicate correctly and avoid power struggles. According to Elternwissen, the way in which conflicts are addressed is crucial. Accusations consistently result in less productive reactions, while constructive conversations can promote healthy cooperation.
In addition to understanding their children's emotional challenges, parents should also pay attention to the social component. Peer pressure is becoming increasingly important, which is why it is even more important to build a trusting relationship with your children. Open conversations about friends and concerns can help increase trust. Puberty compass advises to be patient and take children's needs seriously in order to maintain a positive parent-child relationship.

Participation in the seminar is free, but registration is required by Sunday, February 22nd. You can register online at KoKi-Mil.ticketmachine.de. The Miltenberg District Office is pleased to support parents in this crucial phase of life and to raise awareness of the challenges of puberty.
