With the recent tragedies of several student suicides at Gunn, many parents are feeling overwhelmed, and have a lot of questions. Hearing about, or experiencing tragedies such as these can leave you with a lot of different feelings such as sadness, helplessness, anger and fear. Some of you may have known one of the students who died, and even if you didn't know one of the students, tragedies such as these have a way of bringing up many feelings, even ones unrelated to the current tragedy. You may be coping with your own grief, while simultaneously trying to support your teen through this difficult time. You may have questions, such as how can I talk to my teen? How do I know if my teen is struggling? What can I do to support my teen? And you may also need some support for yourself.
Come share and learn in a safe, confidential, small group setting with other Gunn parents. You'll have an opportunity to:
- Talk about your experience
- Learn tools for talking to teens
- Learn tools for coping with your own feelings
Support group is free. Please call to register and for location information: (650) 266-8229 or email: allisonshotwell@gmail.com
