Factsheet for Parents - Effects of Family Conflicts
Our personalities, personal sensitivities, the baggage we carry from childhood and past experiences can make us vulnerable and insecure in relationships, less able to give or receive love or to deal with conflict.
What is happening in our lives in the present also affects the way we interact with each other and react to conflict. If, for example, we are struggling with financial difficulty or poverty, stresses at work or problems with children, we will almost certainly experience more conflict at home and be less able to manage our disagreements.

Factsheet to help parents keep children safe, happy and learning
Television, the Internet, newspapers and magazines, mobiles phones and video games all have a part to play in helping your son or daughter to make sense of the world.
These forms of technology can play a beneficial role in your child’s mental, physical and social development whilst at primary school, but too much unsupervised time in front of a television, computer, mobile phone or game screen can affect their health and hamper learning.
