Often children and young people with autism face increased challenges in the teenage years which makes them much more anxious about school which can lead to Emotional Based School Avoidance (EBSA). We will talk to Child and Educational Psychologist, Mollie Higgins about the connection between autism and anxiety, which may lead to EBSA and what you can do to support your autistic teen.

This session will help you understand and explore different approaches to dealing with online bullying, inspired by Trisha Prabhu, whose experiences led her to invent ReThink™, a technology that detects offensive content and encourages users to rethink sending it. We will discuss the underlying causes of cyberbullying, how AI could impact a young person's online experience, and we will explore practical, proactive measures that parents, educators, and caregivers can take to create a safer and more supportive online environment for children and young adults. The session will draw on insights from Trisha’s extensive experience, including her TED talks and her book, “ReThink the Internet,” a guide for young people navigating the online landscape.


Understanding Teens and their Online World – Essential knowledge for every Parent 

Teens are at a complicated crossroads in life, gaining independence but often lacking the judgement to make adult decisions. Social and internal pressures they feel themselves , along with the rise in negative body image amplified by social media, can contribute to feelings of inadequacy and low self-worth, which is perhaps why rates of disordered eating among children and adolescents are increasing. Early intervention is key in helping teens with eating issues, but often help can be hard to access. By understanding the signs, symptoms, and treatment options for teen eating disorders, you’ll be better equipped to get your teen the help they need.
