SUMMARY:Webinar: Raising Children with Disability – Supporting Fathers | Relationships Australia Victoria
DESCRIPTION:Fathers of children with special needs often face immense emotional and psychological challenges\, yet their caregiving role is frequently overlooked—especially in cultures influenced by traditional patriarchal norms.\nIn Hong Kong\, where open discussions about fatherhood and emotional struggles remain limited\, many fathers experience deep-seated feelings of shame and guilt\, leading to avoidance behaviours or overcompensation in their parenting approach. \nDr Kai Chung Lo\, from the Department of Applied Social Sciences at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University\, spearheaded a groundbreaking study—the first of its kind in Hong Kong—exploring the moral emotions of fathers caring for children with special needs. This research sheds light on their hidden struggles\, and provides crucial insights into how these emotions impact both their wellbeing and their children’s development. \nJoin us for this eye-opening webinar\, when Dr Lo will present key findings from his extensive research\, offering a rare glimpse into the psychological and social challenges faced by father caregivers. Discover how deeply rooted emotions like shame and guilt manifest in their parenting behaviours and explore the broader societal factors contributing to these struggles. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Centering children when supporting Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander families | AIFS
DESCRIPTION:Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are overrepresented in nearly all statutory services including child protection\, out-of-home care and the youth justice system. \nJoin us in the lead up to National Reconciliation Week (27 May to 3 June) for this important discussion\, held in partnership with Emerging Minds\, on how to better centre children’s experiences\, concerns and aspirations for their future. \nThe theme for National Reconciliation Week 2025 is Bridging Now to Next. The theme reflects the connection between past\, present and future and calls on all Australians to step forward together\, to look ahead and continue the push forward\, guided by past lessons. \nThis webinar will highlight the need to challenge the assumption of Western expertise that has dominated Australia’s colonial history and that has been imposed on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children\, families and communities\, and the importance of valuing and respecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ways of knowing\, being and doing. \nAboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children have a right for their voice to be heard in matters that affect them\, and may want to be involved in decisions relating to them. By centering the perspectives and experiences of children\, we can provide a place for children to feel seen\, heard and understood\, and help reinforce their cultural\, social or personal identity. By practicing deep listening we can have more meaningful conversations and build deeper relationships with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families we work with. \n  \nRegister here
