Gippsland Guide

2 hours of hilarity and practical tips for parents, grandparents or anyone else who works with children.
Steve’s live talks have had a remarkable public response. Hilarious, fun, practical, and moving are some of the words used by over 130,000 people over almost 30 years.

Steve Biddulph is one of the world’s best known parent educators. A psychologist for 25 years, he is now retired but continues to write and teach. His books, including The Secret of Happy Children, Raising Boys, The New Manhood and now RAISING GIRLS are in four million homes and 31 languages. They have influenced the way we look at childhood and especially the development of boys and men. Today though, the exploitation and misuse of girls and young women globally are a major focus.

This event is proudly brought to you as part of a tour organised by the Gippsland Presbytery of the Uniting Church in Australia.
