Navigating a sexed up world

How can we help our children resist harmful messages from media + pop culture and aspire to respectful relationships?

Have you noticed that your young person seems to be growing up too fast? That they are worried about their appearance and more aware of sexual issues at earlier stages?

Children and young people are bombarded with hypersexualised messages from media and popular culture. Even small children are worried about their looks and physical appearance, shaped and conditioned at the earliest of ages by a dominant message that tells them they have to be ‘hot’ to be liked and accepted. How can we address this toxic culture and raise happy, healthy, and resilient young people who value their dignity and self-worth and aspire to relationships based on respect and authentic connection? Melinda will provide practical tips and resources to help us achieve this. Daniel will also contribute to the parent’s session on his work, especially with young men.
