Healthy Teen Friendship Pack

Developing and maintaining healthy friendships and relationships is of monumental importance for teenagers. But this seemingly straightforward process is fraught with unexpected challenges. Many of these challenges can be understood when we realise that change is probably the most constant and predicable behaviour affecting teenagers. While the teenage brain is changing rapidly teenagers need to develop healthy friendships and ongoing relationships.

Just because teenagers have several hundred friends on social media sites does not mean they have several hundred real friends.  With the assistance of the Healthy Teen Friendship Pack teenagers learn what constitutes real friendships as compared to superficial and unhealthy friendships. It has been designed to help with learning appropriate behaviours in social settings, developing a breadth of social skills, choosing friends wisely and avoiding peer pressures.
