Overview

""This compendium of five Parent Guides - Drugs 101, Social Media 101, Sex 101, Respect 101 and Mental Health 101- tells it like it is. Teens 101 is an evidence-based resource that offers parents and carers all they need to know about what their kids are doing and how to keep them safe. ""We want to encourage open and honest family conversations on topics such as drugs, sex, mental health, social media, respect, gambling and gaming. The aim is to inform, not alarm. ""Our comprehensively researched guides draw on the latest available data and expert advice to facilitate these important discussions and build confidence in families of all shapes and sizes. ""No-one has all the answers. But arming yourself with the best information and communicating openly with your kids is a great start. Together, we can maximise their chances of becoming healthy and happy adults.""

""The magazine-style format is fresh and different and, frankly, much more engaging than a lot of the educational information commonly encountered in the health sector ... it was a very non-confrontational, un-alarming and pleasant way of communicating really important information. Seeing sexual health through your 'lens' e.g. the journalistic/media lens, is very different to how most of us in the health sector communicate."" Dr Alana Hulme Chambers // Research Fellow, Department of Rural Health // Centre for Excellence in Rural Sexual Health, Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry & Health Sciences, The University of Melbourne ""The best resource I have ever read on the subjects of children's exposure and involvement with drugs, sex and internet evils. Every GP should read these informative booklets: every parent should have this information at their fingertips. I have urged my daughters to read them. (My two oldest grandchildren are both 11)."" Dr Ann Kelmann ""The Social Media 101 parent guide is a valuable resource for our parents. We now live in a society that is rich with information where we can find everything we need to know online. However, parents often face the dilemma of filtering through information and having to work hard to find reliable sources. Social Media 101 is a well-balanced, easy-to-read, carefully collected guide that has provided information and support to many of our families.""
