Childhood comes to an end for girls and boys they enter puberty. A set of psychosomatic changes then take place inside them which, together with aggressive outside influences, disturb their sensibilities and change their behaviour. We call this period pre-adolescence.
On this Family Enrichment course parents analyse the causes and effects of these changes and study the most appropriate guidelines for maintaining a strong, sensible relationship with their children, without limiting their natural discovery of the world around them, which requires them to start being themselves.
