The message behind this initiative is that parents need coordination, to have effective tools with the aim of being of help with the many problems relating to the relationship between children and parents and considering that, today, families need to be supported in situations linked to an increasingly complex and articulated daily life with ever new demands. The novelty of this edition of Schools for parents also lies in the participation of Ats 15″. The meetings, based on three different themes, will begin on Monday, with “I am a parent.
