Windsor State School: Acclaimed Psychologist- Karen Young- Parent Seminar- Holding Strong, Loving Boundaries (Including Social Media and Screens)

Dear Parents and Carers from Across the Brisbane City Collective Schools

Big feelings and the behaviours that often come with them are part of growing up, but when emotions run high,even the strongest parent-child connection can feel the strain. Boundaries matter. So does connection. The challenge? How to hold your ground without losing your connection and influence in the process. As parents and carers, we want to hold firm, loving boundaries, but how do we do this in a way that deepens connection, holds them safely, and protects their willingness to turn to us? This seminar is here to help…..

We have invited acclaimed psychologist, Karen Young, to Windsor State School to host a parent seminar on the evening of Thursday 14 August 2025.

The topic of her seminar for parents and carers will be, ‘Holding Strong, Loving Boundaries (Including Around Social Media & Screens) While Preserving Influence and Connection’.

It will be about leading with presence, connection and confidence. To view a flyer outlining the content of the evening in detail, please click here.

This seminar, has a different focus to Karen's well-attended and well-received parent seminars from 2022, 2023 and 2024. However, there are some key themes that will be reinforced, as they are highly important for enabling our students to develop with our guidance and support as adults. There will be many key takeaways for parents, carers and staff to implement when working to support our wonderful students. 

Historically, these events have seen very strong ticket sales, so please look to opt-in early to secure your seat. 

Date: Thursday 14 August, 6.30 – 8.00pm
Venue: Windsor State School Hall
Cost: $15
