BBC 2 DOCUMENTARY – BEING A PARENT
Moonstone Films is looking for mums, dads and children for a BBC2 documentary about parenting, presented by Sophie Raworth, which will feature the latest research into childhood and parenting issues. We’d like to talk to people about:
• Young children: Do you work full time? Do you have a child at daycare or nursery and are you concerned about their behaviour? Did your child go to a nursery and find the move to school difficult?
• Changing childcare: Have you tried different types of childcare for your children and did some work better than others?
• Teenagers: Do you and your partner work long hours? Do you feel you hardly ever see your teenager? Is he/she distant, difficult and often getting into trouble?
• Parenting courses: Have you been on a parenting course? How did it help you improve your relationship with your child?
• Rows: Do you and your partner argue a lot? Are you worried about the impact on your children?
If you or anyone you know is interested and would like to know more, please email Rosheen at info@moonstonefilms.co.uk. Your reply will be treated confidentially at this stage.
