Parent Forum: Too Much, Too Young

Have you noticed that your young person sometimes seems to be growing up too fast? Children today are often bombarded with hypersexualised messages, and these unhelpful narratives can distort young people's views of bodies, sexuality and relationships. In this session, presenters Melinda Tankard Reist and Daniel Principe will explore practical ways parents can help to protect young people from the impacts of toxic media, and support respectful relationships and healthy self-image.
