Let's All Talk Mental Health

Young people are growing up in a climate where opinions are strong and differences can quickly feel divisive. In friendship groups, classrooms and online spaces, disagreement can easily tip into judgement, criticism or exclusion. Many teenagers struggle not only with holding their own views, but also with managing the emotional charge that comes when someone disagrees with them.

This session is for parents and teachers who want to help young people develop both confidence and compassion. We will explore how to support teens in expressing themselves assertively without becoming aggressive, and how to help them tolerate disagreement without taking it personally. Just as importantly, we’ll look at how to guide young people away from harsh judgement or criticism of others, and towards curiosity, empathy and respectful difference.

We’ll discuss practical ways to help teens set boundaries, say no when needed, and respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively. We’ll also consider how adults can model respectful disagreement at home and in school, showing that it is possible to stand firm in your values while still treating others with dignity.

The aim is to equip parents and teachers with the tools to help young people become steady, self-assured and compassionate, able to hold their line without aggression, and to disagree without disconnecting.
