PARENT RESOURCES
At Southside, we hope to be an influence in the life of your students. However, we know that we aren’t the only influence. In fact, students are only here at church for up to 0.6% of their year. That means that 99.4% of the time, they are with someone else. Fortunately, a lot of that time is spent with you, their parents, which means you have a greater influence on your kids than we do. But, we want to help!
We believe that two combined influences can have a much greater impact than flying solo. In other words, we are better together. When we are on the same page, pulling in the same direction saying the same things, imagine what we can do together in the life of your students! Below are links to some reputable resources we recommend.
Parent Guides educate and prepare you to have confident conversations with your kid about big topics like mental health, technology use, bullying and more. These downloadable PDFs will answer your questions and equip you to dive deeper with your teenager.
Conversation Kits are topical video series designed for you and your teen to watch and discuss together. These family-friendly videos weave biblical principles with cultural references to provide an engaging experience that is relevant to teens and trusted by parents.
