An Awareness of the Teenage Years
Monday, October 11, 2010

The YWCA Parent Awareness Network & Middlesex Middle School present a Middle School Parent Exchange.
Short skirts, cell phones and risky teenage behavior are just a few of the issues and concerns that children face as they reach Middle School.
To ease these transitions and provide a platform for parents to share thoughts and concerns, Middlesex Principal Debi Boccanfuso will moderate a free Parent Exchange on Wednesday, October 13th from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM at Middlesex Middle School (MMS) in Darien.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a brown bag lunch.
MMS Guidance Counselors and staff will participate in the program and provide parents with an opportunity to join group discussions. The range of topics will be parent-driven with the goal to:
• Ease transitions into a new school
• Address concerns with MMS professionals regarding teen behavior
• Get information your teens may not be communicating with you
• Find out what other parents are concerned about or are doing to address similar issues
• Interact with other parents who’ve already “been there” with older children
Questions may be addressed to
