By: Real Beauty Inside Out "Communication is the key to back to school success and reducing the potential for risky behaviors," says Dr. Trevicia Williams. According to Mental Health America, 60% of 8-11 year olds and 56% of 12-15 year olds say they learn "a lot" from their mothers about issues like sex, alcohol, drugs and violence. Most youth turn to their mothers before their teachers and classes, fathers, the media, and friends. "Adolescence is a challenging time for both mothers and their teen daughters; however, there are several ways that the mother-daughter bond can be strengthened, and, friction can be reduced this time," says Dr. Williams. A healthy mother daughter relationship also helps to prevent teen pregnancy. According to the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancies, "Teens say parents most influence their decisions about sex and 87% say it would be much easier for them to postpone sex and avoid teen pregnancy if they were able to have more open, honest conversations about these topics with their parents." Psychologist, Dr. Williams, author of Pearls in the Pain of Every Experience: Girl Still, Woman Not Quite, provides information and practical tools for dealing with the dynamics of the mother-daughter relationships during girls' teen years. During this interactive hands-on workshop, mothers and teen daughters will learn skills for effective communication to build healthy relationships, develop trust and respect, bond and grow. They will also be empowered and equipped to deal with "girl still, woman not quite" issues such as decision making, effective communication and the transition from girl to young lady that oftentimes cause friction in their relationship during turbulent teen years. Participants may expect to learn how to build a strong relationship, how to have conflict-free communication, get beyond surviving the stage and learn how to thrive through the adolescence years, when it's appropriate to be friends, and create a mother daughter bond that lasts a lifetime.
