Better Conversations
Are you struggling to co-parent with either your current partner or ex-partner? Better Conversations could be a helpful tool for you and your family.
Better Conversations is a web-based, simple to use role-play tool created to help parents and co-parents have better, less conflicted conversations.
Better Conversations contains a range of conversation topics which have the potential to lead to conflict. The tool allows you to practise better communication and find out why one choice of response may well escalate tension, while another may reduce the likelihood of arguments.
Each of the Better Conversations scenarios takes only a few minutes to complete. Parents can then go through the same scenario, making different choices in order to see how these choices affect how the conversation then plays out.
To access the course, visit the Better Conversations Northamptonshire website and use the access code 4235.
