Support For Parents

Are you at your “Wits End”?

  • Do you sometimes find it difficult understanding your teenager?
  • Do you find yourself thinking that they never listen?
  • You may even feel that you have failed as a parent – lots of people do.

The world has changed and young people are faced with many different problems and pressures in today’s society. Unfortunately they may find it difficult to cope with and react in a way that may cause you as a parent or carer concern.

But don’t worry - help is out there!

Throughout Aberdeenshire there are many different projects supporting parents/carers to deal with issues such as challenging behaviour, lack of communication, and health and social issues (eg alcohol/drugs, sexual health).

For information on what’s available near you, contact your local Community Centre.
