How Let’s Connect Helps You Understand Your Child’s Behaviour

Liam Jenkins — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 04:17:01 +0000

The Let’s Connect Game is a free online tool developed by Relationships Australia SA to help parents and carers practise responding to everyday parenting moments with connection and care. It presents realistic scenarios where a child’s behaviour is communicating something, and invites you to slow down, tune in, and consider how you want to respond.

Below is a closer look at how the game works and why understanding what’s behind your child’s behaviour can strengthen your relationship with them.

What is your childs' behaviour telling you?

Your child just used your credit card to buy something online. Or they’re refusing to brush their teeth, again. In that moment, how do you respond?

Most parents and carers know these situations well. They happen fast, they’re stressful, and it’s easy to react before you’ve had time to think. But what if you had a chance to slow down, consider what your child might be feeling, and explore how to stay connected in those moments?

A free tool built for real parenting moments

The Let’s Connect Game is a free, mobile-friendly online game developed by the Children and Parenting Support team at Relationships Australia SA. It’s quick to play, works on any device, and doesn’t require a sign-up or download.

The game presents you with a series of realistic scenarios, each featuring a child whose behaviour is communicating something.

Rather than testing you for the ‘right’ answer, it’s a chance to pause, tune in to what your child might need, and think about how you want to show up in that moment.

How does it work?

The choices you make are categorised across three areas: how well you identified and responded to your child’s emotional needs, how well you looked after your own wellbeing, and how effectively you nurtured your bond with your child.

Some scenarios will be timed, reflecting the split-second decisions parents often face.

Why behaviour is communication

Children don’t always have the words to tell us what they’re feeling. Instead, they show us through their behaviour. A child who is defiant at morning routines might be feeling anxious about the day ahead. A child who takes something without asking might be testing boundaries as a way of seeking connection or attention.

When we can pause and consider what’s behind the behaviour, rather than reacting to it, we’re better placed to respond in a way that builds trust and emotional safety. The game offers a space to notice the emotional need behind the action, to practice regulating your own response, and strengthen your connection with your child.

A tool for professionals too

The Let’s Connect Game was originally developed as a conversation starter. Counsellors, social workers, family support workers and other professionals can use it as a practical, low-barrier entry point for discussions with parents and carers about emotional connection, parenting under pressure, and understanding children’s needs.

Try it yourself

Whether you’re a parent looking for a way to explore how you connect with your child in difficult moments, or a professional looking for a practical tool to use in your work with families, the Let’s Connect Game is free and works on any device.

Respectful Relationships: A Conversation Starter for Families

Abby Bowden — Tue, 27 Jan 2026 01:13:35 +0000

我们的 Together4Kids conversation starter resource is designed to help families pause, check in, and learn together what respectful relationships look, sound, and feel like in everyday life.

This one‑page resource supports meaningful conversations between parents, carers, and children, encouraging everyone to reflect on their own behaviours while helping adults role model the values and actions that support children’s healthy social and emotional development.

Below is a deeper look at each part of the resource to help families use it with confidence and purpose.

What Respectful Relationships Look Like

Caring for Others

Caring for others means noticing how people around us are feeling and responding with empathy and kindness. In everyday family life, this can look like:

Offering help when someone is struggling

Checking in when a family member seems upset or withdrawn

Showing patience during stressful or busy moments

Children learn caring behaviours by watching how adults respond to others, especially during challenging situations.

Accepting Difference

Respectful relationships recognise and value that everyone is different. Accepting difference involves:

Respecting different opinions, cultures, abilities, and identities

Allowing children to express who they are without judgement

Talking openly about differences in a calm and supportive way

When families model acceptance, children learn that differences are normal and something to be respected, not feared.

Connection

Connection is about feeling close, supported, and valued within relationships. This can look like:

Spending quality time together, even in small moments

Being emotionally present during conversations

Showing interest in each other’s experiences and feelings

Strong connections help children feel secure and supported as they grow.

What Respectful Relationships Sound Like

Kind Words

The language we use matters. Kind words help build trust and emotional safety. This includes:

Speaking calmly, even when emotions are high

Using words that encourage rather than criticise

Modelling respectful communication during disagreements

Children often mirror the way adults speak, making kind language a powerful teaching tool.

Forgiving Mistakes

Mistakes are part of learning and growing. Forgiveness in families means:

Acknowledging mistakes without shame

Taking responsibility and offering genuine apologies

Allowing space to repair relationships after conflict

This helps children learn resilience and accountability, rather than fear of getting things wrong.

Resolving Problems

Respectful problem‑solving shows children how to manage conflict safely. This can involve:

Listening to each other’s perspectives

Finding solutions together

Avoiding blame, yelling, or threats

These skills support children to navigate relationships beyond the family, including school and friendships.

What Respectful Relationships Feel Like

Being Heard

Feeling heard means knowing that thoughts and feelings matter. Families can support this by:

Listening without interrupting

Validating children’s emotions, even when limits are needed

Encouraging children to express themselves safely

Having Choices

Offering age‑appropriate choices supports independence and confidence. This may include:

Letting children make small decisions where possible

Explaining boundaries clearly and respectfully

Involving children in problem‑solving

Feeling Safe

Safety is the foundation of respectful relationships. Feeling safe includes:

Emotional safety, where feelings are not dismissed or ridiculed

Physical safety, free from fear or harm

Predictable routines and clear expectations

Respectful Touch

Respectful touch means understanding boundaries and consent. This involves:

Asking before physical contact

Respecting when someone says no

Teaching children that their bodies belong to them

These conversations help children develop lifelong understanding of consent and personal boundaries.

Using This Resource

You can download the PDF of this resource 这里.

This conversation starter is designed to be used by families in a way that feels right for them. You might choose to:

Talk through one section at a time

Use it during everyday moments, such as mealtimes or car rides

Revisit it as children grow and family situations change

There are no right or wrong answers – the goal is to encourage open, respectful conversations and learning together.

South Australia’s Donor Conception Laws Explained

Maya Aguilar — Wed, 27 Aug 2025 07:00:58 +0000

What is the Donor Conception Register (DCR)?

The DCR is a central record of South Australian donor conception treatment information, including historical information from the 1970s up to the current day.

It is the first register of its kind in Australia and includes donor names, genetic history, and people conceived from donations.

Adults connected to a South Australian donor conception can register to access their records.

Recent changes to the law

On 26 February 2025, South Australia changed its laws to give people conceived before September 2004 access to donor information that was previously unavailable. This means that donor anonymity was removed.

What this means

Donor-conceived people can register to access their information within an online archive that is updated in real-time.
The identities of people who donated under anonymity can now be accessed by connected donor-conceived people.

The changes were made after consultation with the South Australian donor conception community to support the health and wellbeing of donor-conceived people.

How these changes may affect you

Prior to 1988 there was no legal requirement for doctors and assisted reproductive treatment clinics to keep records about donor conception treatments. Donors were guaranteed lifelong anonymity and parents were often advised not to tell their child the truth about their conception.

If you were a donor or donor-conceived before September 2004, you may:

Have only recently discovered you are donor-conceived
Feel unsure about how to contact a DCR connection
Be exploring your genetic heritage for the first time
Feel concerned about your privacy or missing information
Need support to have sensitive conversations with loved ones
Be experiencing feelings of uncertainty if you donated on the condition of anonymity

No matter your situation, it’s important to know support is available.

The DCR Support Service

The DCR Support Service at Relationships Australia SA offers free, confidential support for donors, donor-conceived people, and their families.

We provide a range of support including:

辅导
Assistance accessing and understanding information found on the DCR
Further checks and search work where there are gaps in records available on the DCR
Support managing contact with a DCR connection
Support for having sensitive conversations with others
Information on your rights and responsibilities

读书俱乐部故事书——经历过这些的孩子们

经历过这些事情的孩子们的故事无家可归和家庭暴力

关于读书俱乐部项目

“携手关爱儿童 (T4K)”读书俱乐部项目将曾经是 T4K 服务对象的儿童及其幼儿和婴儿的父母聚集在一起，根据他们无家可归和家庭暴力的经历，编写和绘制儿童故事。

该项目是为了响应南澳大利亚州家庭暴力和性暴力皇家委员会的公告而开发的，旨在让孩子们的声音能够被决策者听到，并为其他有类似经历的孩子带来希望。

关于流程

孩子们和家人参加了一系列由 T4K 从业者设计的研讨会，重点是建立关系和讲故事的力量。

在研讨会上，他们以澳大利亚本土动物为角色，探讨地点、情感、关系和安全等主题，并通过艺术和手工艺、角色扮演和自然游戏来发展故事。

读书俱乐部的作者们共同决定故事情节、人物和插图，运用解决问题的技巧和团队合作精神，并借鉴彼此的想法。

我们聘请了专业的儿童教育机构 Kids Thrive，帮助孩子们将改变的信息以故事书的形式呈现出来。最终，我们创作出了精彩的鹰诗，并聘请了一位插画师为故事配图。 妈妈袋鼠 让幼儿的体验变得生动活泼。

然后将故事和插图放在一起，创造出 经历过这些的孩子们, 经历过无家可归和家庭暴力的儿童的故事。

新书发布会

经历过这些的孩子们 于 2025 年 6 月 18 日在 Relationships Australia SA 的 Hindmarsh 站点的游乐场举行的特别仪式上启动。

在活动中，年轻的作家们在政府决策者以及其他来自家庭暴力领域的政要和代表面前分享了他们的故事——确保他们的声音不仅被听到，而且被视为强有力的变革呼吁。

他们希望他们的故事能够帮助其他经历无家可归和家庭暴力的孩子知道他们并不孤单。

Tips for parents in temporary accommodation in a Motel

Abby Bowden — 2023 年 10 月 4 日星期三 22:54:41 +0000

无论是在汽车旅馆还是临时住房，居住在临时住所都会给无家可归的家庭带来独特的挑战。这会扰乱正常的家庭生活和习惯，而且空间和隐私也会减少。

以下是一些在您临时住宿期间为您提供帮助的提示。我们希望它能帮助您更好地了解您的孩子行为异常的原因和方式。

日常生活很重要

虽然可能无法立即恢复，但恢复熟悉的日常生活可以给孩子带来舒适和安全。观看喜爱的电视节目、享用喜欢的食物或参观熟悉的地方可以带来舒适和安全。

由于空间有限，可以通过一起读书、画画或玩拼图等活动建立一个“放松”程序来指示何时该睡觉了。

照顾好你自己

给自己一些时间来处理你的家人正在经历的事情. 给自己足够的时间来处理你正在经历的事情，这样你将更容易地帮助你的孩子理解他们自己复杂的感受。

帮助您的孩子理解正在发生的事情

孩子们可能会对生活中的变化感到好奇或担心。向他们保证这些变化都是暂时的，并鼓励他们表达自己的担忧。

让您的孩子知道您会在他们身边，为他们提供身体和情感上的支持。通过您的安慰、熟悉的玩具、尽可能坚持熟悉的活动和日常活动，为他们在住宿中创造一个安全的空间。

有些孩子可能认为是他们造成了家庭变故。重要的是让他们知道这不是他们的错，你会支持他们。

您可能会看到住在临时住所的儿童

年龄回归

孩子可能会恢复旧习惯，比如吮吸拇指、尿裤子、说话方式不同，或者总是想和父母呆在一起，这是因为大变化这些都是常见的反应。冷静而友善地回应；您的孩子可能会感到害羞或担心分享这些行为.

睡眠中断和恶心

儿童可能会出现睡眠困难、胃痛或头痛，尤其是当他们是太小，无法表达感情。为了帮助，请阅读故事、播放音乐、拥抱并提供舒适的食物。他们可能需要亲切的话语和拥抱来安慰。

大行为

在发生重大变化时，儿童可能会表现出强烈的情感和行为。这些情感和行为可能表现为因担忧和困惑而产生的愤怒和爆发。

当孩子情绪激动时，请保持冷静。理解他们的感受，并向他们保证你的支持和爱，以增强他们的安全感。

当孩子情绪激动时，他们可能不会清楚地表达自己的需求。稍后再与他们联系，询问下次出现强烈情绪时您可以如何帮助他们。

建议活动有助于平复情绪。包括深呼吸、安慰玩具、感官玩具（如橡皮泥或减压球）或推坚固墙壁等活动以释放压力。示范冷静反应并练习您的策略，因为这将有助于支持您的孩子管理自己的情绪。

提款

有些孩子不会通过言语或身体表达自己的感受；他们可能很安静，睡眠时间较长，出现胃痛或显得心不在焉。

对于性格孤僻的孩子来说，多活动是有益的；多散步或在户外度过时光。如果他们难以用语言表达自己的感受，可以与他们一起进行绘画、写作或阅读等共同活动，以帮助他们表达感受。

重要的是要记住...

每个孩子都是不同的。即使有相同的经历，孩子对事件的反应也各不相同。有些孩子可能会变得沉默寡言或孤僻，而有些孩子可能会表现出来。

定期与您的孩子联系并向他们保证他们可以向您寻求支持。

You are not alone: Multicultural support for gambling harm in South Australia

Abby Bowden — 2023 年 9 月 21 日星期四 05:21:50 +0000

南澳大利亚州是一个充满活力的多元文化社区。每年我们都会迎来数千名新移民。但是，如果您是从海外移民过来的，那么适应新文化可能是一个挑战。

赌博危害是最常见的挑战之一——尤其是当你英语说得不好时，这使得很难知道在哪里以及如何获得帮助。

许多来自文化和语言多元化 (CALD) 背景的人更容易遭受赌博危害的影响，其中包括：

无家可归
债务和财务压力
家庭和关系破裂。

我怎么知道我是否需要帮助？

很难知道你的赌博是否已经从一种有趣的活动变成了你生活中的问题。识别标志将帮助您了解自己的赌博行为并决定是否需要寻求外部帮助。

赌博对他人造成危害的迹象有哪些？

您的朋友或家人中是否有人可能正在遭受赌博伤害？如果您不确定，请考虑以下迹象，这些迹象可能表明存在赌博问题：

他们是否花越来越多的时间在赌博上？
他们是否隐藏了自己的赌博行为？
他们是不是总是看上去没钱？
他们借钱去赌博吗？
是否有账单未付？
赌博是否影响他们的工作？
他们是否对金钱、财务记录或缺席情况保密？

如果其他人的赌博行为对您造成了伤害，我们可以为您提供支持。即使他们还没有做好准备，我们也可以指导您如何帮助他们。

社区能做什么？

社区可以在减少赌博危害和支持康复方面发挥重要作用。以下是一些想法：

尽量避免羞辱或孤立任何遭受赌博伤害的人。这会使情况变得更糟。通过承诺和集体努力，社区可以学会不带偏见并对受影响的人产生同理心。

如果您是社区的领导者，您就有责任提高社区对赌博和问题赌博的认识，挑战消极态度并鼓励人们寻求帮助。
培养愿意讲述自己赌博危害经历的社区大使。这将有助于减少他人的耻辱感和羞耻感，并鼓励他们尽早寻求帮助。
用您所在社区的语言制作材料资源，例如小册子或视频。您的社区可获得的信息越多越好。

如果你是南澳大利亚州任何一个不同社区的关心成员，并且需要本文所讨论的任何内容的支持，请联系 PEACE 多元文化服务 在 (08) 8245 8100 或访问网站 www.askpeace.org.au

如何立即获得帮助

您认为自己可能存在赌博问题吗？如果是这样，您并不孤单。重要的是不要感到羞耻——我们会帮助您。

不要因为英语说得不好而感到尴尬。我们将为您提供翻译。我们的支持人员也经过培训，能够理解您的特定文化需求。

What is ‘parental conflict’ and why should we talk about it?

WPCreative — 2023 年 7 月 30 日星期日 22:29:43 +0000

在第一部分中我们谈论‘正常’程度的冲突。 让我们谈谈冲突 这是一个包含七部分的视频系列，每部分时长 5-10 分钟，提供有益的学习内容和要点总结。

冲突是可以修复的

父母之间的冲突可以是建设性的，也可以是破坏性的，甚至可能是家庭暴力。幸运的是，只要双方都安全，正常程度的冲突是可以控制的，甚至可以给孩子学习和成长的机会。很多对孩子的长期伤害是可以预防的，许多形式的冲突造成的损害是可以修复的。

儿童需要情感支持才能成长

正如植物需要土壤才能生长一样，您的孩子也需要您的情感滋养，以促进其情感和社会发展。作为父母，您就像园丁。您和您与孩子建立的关系将成为孩子成长的土壤。

父母之间的低级冲突是家庭生活的正常组成部分。虽然它可以包括迁就行为（例如保持冷静，并了解另一方父母的观点），但有时也会变得具有破坏性。父母之间充满破坏性的冲突（例如愤怒、不信任、威胁、大喊大叫或“冷战”）就像是一种毒素或恶劣的土壤。您可能一开始看不到损害，但情绪毒素可能会对孩子的长期心理健康和未来的生活机会产生负面影响。

重要的是，大多数父母可以做出小小的改变，从而给孩子的生活带来巨大的变化，让他们茁壮成长。

反思

想想当你与伴侣或前任发生口角时，你会如何回应，虽然这令人不快，但并不危险。你是否意识到自己有不礼貌的行为？如果你意识到了，你可以采取一些措施，从不同的沟通方式开始。

What Your Parents Didn’t Know…

WPCreative — 2023 年 7 月 29 日星期六 08:28:38 +0000

In Part 2 we talk about what your parents didn’t know. 让我们谈谈冲突 is a seven-part video series, each 5–10 minutes in duration, with 支持性学习和关键要点.

爱与关怀塑造你的孩子

Your everyday love and care are vital to shaping your child’s emotional and social development. Conflict can impact how you parent and the quality of the relationship you have with your child.

你是他们的安全港湾

正如植物需要太阳的能量才能生长一样，培养安全依恋的关爱氛围为孩子高级大脑的成长奠定了基础，支持他们保持冷静、管理自己的感受，并最终应对压力并在现实世界中茁壮成长。生命的前 1000 天——从受孕到孩子 2 岁生日——是您与孩子建立这种关系的独特机会之窗。

安全依恋关系也是未来人际关系的基础。与父母建立安全依恋关系意味着孩子在与你分离时可能不会那么痛苦，与他人相处时更有信心，社交能力也会更强。当他们冒险进入广阔的世界时，他们会感到安全，因为他们知道，如果需要的话，你就是他们的避风港。

冲突会影响你的养育方式。当你做出反应时，你对孩子的情感投入就不够充分——这不是他们需要的安全基础。随着时间的推移，这可能会动摇他们的发展基础。如果冲突成为一种模式，他们情感成长的许多部分就无法扎根……他们情感成长的重要部分可能会开始枯萎。

反思

考虑一下你如何向孩子表达爱和关怀。你对他们的需求敏感吗？你是否能及时满足他们的需求？你是否在身体和情感上都愿意陪伴他们？这些都是帮助孩子与你建立安全依恋关系的简单方法。
