Families in Harmony Programme

 

There are many forms of conflict in relationships, and some are really healthy. As adults, we are role models for our children so if we are able to remain calm and respectful whilst addressing any disagreements we have, it provides our children with important life skills for future interactions with others. But conflict in a relationship can become an issue when it is frequent or poorly managed, and impacts the harmony of family life.

Here you can find out information about what parental conflict is, how it differs from domestic abuse, and how our Families in Harmony Programme can help you!
