Based on conversations we had with parents in the past, we are planning to do a monthly facilitated chat here on the forums.
It would be a thread like this, but we all meet at a certain time and reply and talk in real time. We thought on a Wednesday, at about 8pm for an hour, talking about the things that matter most to us...
Question 1: would you come?
We were thinking about calling it a a "Wednesday Wrap" and doing one in 2 weeks time...
Question 2: So, what would you want to talk about?
Should it be a set topic or just whatever we feel like at the time?
If it's a set topic we could talk about one of the top issues posted in the community so far:
Or we could talk about current issues going on -
- Safe schools
- Getting help when facing long waiting lists, and over stretched mental health services
- Young people embrace text message reminders to help curb binge drinking
etc
Or tell us your ideas!!
We'd love to hear from you...
I would come. I'd like to hear other parents' ideas on pocket money and chores. I know - mundane! Sometimes life is like that.
