Parent Strong Network











Lake Country Area Parent Strong Network 
(Sponsored by Arrowhead Union High School)


Kids today live in a society with many pressures and some high stake consequences.  Do you as a parent ever wonder?
  • How do I know that my child is making positive and healthy decisions with friends and choices?
  • What can I do to understand what might be “out there” that can harm my child?  (ie. experimenting with drugs, sharing information on the internet, etc.
  • Do I parent teenagers differently?

Kids’ brains tend to compartmentalize the different aspects of their lives into separate sections – Family, Friends, School, and Activities. As parents, it would be nice to have a group of people in which you can connect with to discuss our kids. The Parent Strong Network is an opportunity to net work with other Lake Country area parents as we share our knowledge and experiences about various parenting topics which include but not limited to:
  • Insights into why teens think and behave the way they do
  • How substances impact normal brain development during the teen years
  • Giving parents the tools to help raise healthy, responsible, and positively engaged children.
