Relate for parents is here to offer advice to help parents of the estimated 11 million students preparing to start a new school year this September.
Paula Hall, counsellor with Relate, explains-
“Change is something that brings stress to all of us, even when it is something that we are looking forward to. Inevitably it means we are leaving the security of familiarity behind and are forced to live on our optimism that we will discover something better”. We need to “be positive and give bucket loads of reassurance, even if you do not feel it. In fact, especially if you do not feel it. A positive attitude is contagious and hopefully you will be so convincing that you will find yourself believing what you’re saying too”.
