How can families support young people during exam time? 📚I recently spoke with Kat Feeney on 612 @abcnews Brisbane Afternoons about practical ways to help reduce exam stress at home. Here’s a clip from the conversation: instagram.com/reel/DVsULwIEl…

New open access paper in Family Relations on establishing PAFRA. The article presents a model for research alliances that catalyze collective action in parenting science, policy & practice onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Pleased to see PAFRA support the Australian Government's ban on social media for under-16s. Parent education is highlighted as crucial in helping kids make this transition.
The #ICEPS2025 Congress has wrapped up.
