Visiting Author Acclaimed author, Madonna King, will be speaking at San Sisto College.
The power of a friendship group. Building self-confidence. The obsession with selfies, and social media. The moods. Is your daughter approaching 14?
This talk is for parents and carers to gain a greater understanding of what it is like to be a teenager in 2018. Madonna King’s best-selling ‘Being 14’ taps into what our girls are thinking and what they want us - their parents - to know. It comes from interviewing almost 200 14 year old girls, along with dozens of school principals, teen counsellors, child psychologists, parenting experts and police.
The girls say it puts into words what they struggle to articulate. For parents, it’s the information you need to ensure your teen becomes an awesome woman.
Her book, ‘Being 14’, is a brilliant read for anyone with a daughter coming of age and for anyone who works with young women. Madonna will have books on sale on the evening.
