'You Just Don't Understand' :
Parenting Across Scotland (PAS) has produced a DVD of a drama written and performed by the young people of Drumchapel High school which illustrates the issues that concern them as teenagers and the difficulties parents can have when they try to talk with their teenage offspring. Click here to view a clip of the DVD. Parents concerns mirror the concerns of young people, the pupils decided to write a drama about teenage life and parental concerns for a parents' information event at the school. The drama was so well received that it was subsequently performed at the PAS 'Real Stories' event at the Scottish Parliament. The film covers three themes: Bullying Body image Underage sex, sexually transmitted infections and alcohol The film includes quotes from parents who have rang ParentLine Scotland looking for help and advice, and statistics about young peoples' attitudes and behaviour supplied by the Schools Health Education Unit. The film has been produced by Parenting Across Scotland for distribution to schools, parenting and family support services, and youth and community groups. PAS would like to thank the young people who took the time and trouble to write and perform the drama and Drumchapel High School for supporting the project. There is no charge for the film If you would like a copy of the DVD please contact alison.clancy@children1st.org.uk Alison Clancy Project Officer PAS |
