"Setting
Limits----Communication Between Parent and Teen"
In the spirit of many popular PTSO
meetings, NewTV is presenting a show
entitled, "Setting Limits--Communication Between
Parent and Teen." The guest speaker of the
first show is Rich Catrambone, Prevention /
Intervention Counselor at Newton South High

are really important in beginning that dialogue
with your teen and with other parents. The
series is appropriate for parents of children of
all ages, including middle-school
age.
This is the first in a series of
discussions about teen issues. We hope
that you will watch it and communicate back to
us your questions and comments.
