Often, young people are struggling with issues at home that affect their well-being and how they behave. Sometimes the pressures on families (such as poverty, or the additional requirements in caring for a disabled child) create additional pressures at home.

The following pages provide more information about a range of parental issues. Consider how these may impact on the children or young people you are working with. While it may be important to provide some emotional support and practical steps to support parents, schools should always consider how the work they are undertaking improves the life of the young person and keep their welfare central to any action they take.
