Art of Parenting - Education from Home
We have also
sought to improve the students’ lives at home. If a student is having problems
at home, then it is hard for them to fully participate in the regular program
at college.
With one batch
of students, we had a full-day session where the parents of the students came in
for parental training. They were shown techniques on how to empathize communicate with their child as well as give their general support. If a child
does not feel supported, they are unlikely to succeed so the aim of this the session was to instruct parents on how to ensure their child feels supported.
Family disputes
and difficulties in the home are common amongst the kinds of families our
students are from. However, we wanted to get our message across to the parents
that wherever possible they should avoid letting negative experiences at home
become a distraction to their child’s education.
We also wanted
to curb any negative behavior and attitudes of the parents so that they could
great role models and show their kids how to behave. The Art of Parenting is a collaborative effort between the school and the students’ families to ensure
the best possible future for all attendees of FAB.
