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

我們的 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 這裡.

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.

Share the Care: Creating a Child-Focused Parenting Plan During Separation

Maya Aguilar — Thu, 13 Nov 2025 01:18:32 +0000

Separation can be one of the most challenging times for children and parents alike. The changes in family living arrangements often disrupt routines, attachments and a sense of stability for children.

The booklet Share 這 Care: 育兒 Plan – Collaborative Parenting Apart is a practical, accessible guide for separating parents navigating these challenges.

It offers a roadmap to build a customised written plan for how children will be supported, cared for and connected – now and as their lives evolve.

What's Inside

Share the Care is comprehensive yet practical.

Key topics include:

About parenting plans: Explains what a parenting plan is, what it is not, and how it differs from a legally enforceable order.
Communication: Offers guidance on how separated parents can establish respectful communication channels (phone, text, email), agree on shared values/culture, and avoid putting children in the middle.
Living arrangements: Helps parents think through how children will spend time with each parent, how transitions between households can be gentler, and how to handle special days/holidays.
Finances: Highlights how often the financial issue is a source of conflict and sets out checklists and tips for managing everyday costs, child support 和 unforeseen expenses.
Education: Covers how schooling, extracurricular activities and changing schools can be managed collaboratively — while keeping children’s best interests at heart.
Emergency contacts / Health and wellbeing records: Supports parents to maintain a shared reference of key contacts, medical details, and wellbeing information so both homes can be equipped.
Useful 資源: A curated list of national support services (e.g. for family violence, legal advice 和 child support) so parents know where to turn if things become difficult.

Take Action

如果 you’re navigating separation, working through how to manage care arrangements for children, or looking for a clear 和 structured way to talk about the future:

Download Share 這 Care and make a start.
Use it alongside other resources on RASA’s 知識中心.
Reach out to RASA’s 家事糾紛調解服務 if you’d like help turning the plan into action or mediating differences.

Creating a thoughtful parenting plan is more than ticking boxes—it’s about laying a foundation for children’s safety, wellbeing and connection in a new chapter of family life.

With thoughtful planning, respectful 溝通 and a focus on what the children need, families can work together to reduce stress and raise 這 possibility of a smoother transition.

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:

輔導
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

讀書俱樂部故事書－經歷過這些的孩子們

經歷過這些事情的孩子們的故事無家可歸和家庭暴力

關於讀書俱樂部項目

「攜手關懷兒童 (T4K)」讀書俱樂部計畫將曾經是 T4K 服務對象的兒童及其幼兒和嬰兒的父母聚集在一起，根據他們無家可歸和家庭暴力的經歷，編寫和繪製兒童故事。

該計畫是為了回應南澳大利亞州家庭暴力和性暴力皇家委員會的公告而開發的，旨在讓孩子們的聲音能夠被決策者聽到，並為其他有類似經歷的孩子帶來希望。

關於流程

孩子們和家人參加了一系列由 T4K 從業者設計的研討會，重點是建立關係和講故事的力量。

在研討會上，他們以澳洲本土動物為角色，探討地點、情感、關係和安全等主題，並透過藝術和手工藝、角色扮演和自然遊戲來發展故事。

讀書俱樂部的作者們共同決定故事情節、人物和插圖，運用解決問題的技巧和團隊合作精神，並藉鏡彼此的想法。

我們聘請了專業的兒童教育機構 Kids Thrive，幫助孩子們將改變的訊息以故事書的形式呈現出來。最終，我們創作出了精彩的鷹詩，並聘請了一位插畫家為故事配圖。 媽媽袋鼠 讓幼兒的體驗變得生動活潑。

然後將故事和插圖放在一起，創造出 經歷過這些的孩子們, 經歷過無家可歸和家庭暴力的兒童的故事。

新書發表會

經歷過這些的孩子們 於 2025 年 6 月 18 日在 Relationships Australia SA 的 Hindmarsh 站點的遊樂場舉行的特別儀式上啟動。

在活動中，年輕的作家們在政府決策者以及其他來自家庭暴力領域的政要和代表面前分享了他們的故事——確保他們的聲音不僅被聽到，而且被視為強有力的變革呼籲。

他們希望他們的故事能幫助其他經歷無家可歸和家庭暴力的孩子知道他們並不孤單。

致謝

讀書俱樂部計畫由 Together4Kids 發起，並由南澳大利亞州政府人類服務部資助。

Tips for parents in temporary accommodation in a Motel

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

住在臨時住處，無論是汽車旅館還是臨時住房，都為無家可歸的家庭帶來了獨特的挑戰。它擾亂了正常的家庭慣例和生活方式，並且空間和隱私更少。

以下是一些在臨時住宿期間為您提供幫助的提示。我們希望它可以幫助您更好地了解您的孩子行為不同的方式和原因。

作息規律很重要

雖然這可能無法立即實現，但回到熟悉的日常生活可以為您的孩子提供舒適和安全。觀賞喜愛的電視節目、享用喜愛的食物或參觀熟悉的地方可以提供舒適和安全。

由於空間有限，可以透過閱讀、繪畫或一起做拼圖等活動來建立「放鬆」習慣，以表明何時該就寢了。

照顧好你自己

給自己一些時間來處理家人正在經歷的事情. 給自己足夠的時間來處理你正在經歷的事情，會讓你的孩子更容易理解他們自己複雜的感受。

幫助您的孩子理解正在發生的事情

孩子可能會對生活的變化感到好奇或擔憂。讓他們相信這些變化是暫時的，並鼓勵他們表達自己的擔憂。

讓您的孩子知道您在他們身邊，為他們提供身體和情感上的支持。透過您的保證、熟悉的玩具、盡可能堅持熟悉的活動和慣例，在住宿內為他們創造一個安全的空間。

有些孩子可能認為他們導致了家庭變化。重要的是要讓他們知道這不是他們的錯，並且你會支持他們。

您可能會從住在臨時住所的孩子身上看到什麼

年齡回歸

孩子可能會恢復一些舊習慣，例如吸吮拇指、尿褲子、說話方式不同，或想一直和父母在一起，因為大變化。這些都是常見的反應。冷靜、友善地回應；您的孩子可能會感到害羞或擔心分享這些行為.

睡眠中斷和感覺不舒服

兒童可能會睡眠困難、胃痛或頭痛，尤其是在以下情況下他們是太年輕，無法表達感情。為了提供幫助，請閱讀故事、播放音樂、擁抱並提供舒適的食物。他們可能需要善意的話語和擁抱來安慰。

大行為

在重大變化期間，兒童可能會表現出強烈的感受和行為。這些可能表現為由於擔憂和困惑而導致的憤怒和爆發。

當你的孩子有強烈的情緒時，保持冷靜。承認他們的感受，並向他們保證你的支持和愛，以增強他們的安全感。

當您的孩子有強烈的感受時，他們可能不會清楚地表達自己的需求。稍後與他們聯繫，詢問下次出現任何強烈感覺時您可以如何提供幫助。

建議進行有助於平靜情緒的活動。包括深呼吸、舒適玩具、橡皮泥或壓力球等感官玩具，或推靠堅固的牆壁以釋放緊張感等活動。模仿冷靜的反應並練習你的策略，因為這將有助於支持你的孩子管理他們的情緒。

撤回

有些孩子不會用語言或身體表達自己的感受；他們可能很安靜，睡得更多，出現胃痛，或者看起來精神恍惚。

對於性格孤僻的孩子來說，積極活動可能很有用。散步或在戶外度過時光。與他們一起進行繪畫、寫作或閱讀等共享活動，幫助他們在言語有挑戰性時表達感受。

重要的是要記住...

每個孩子都是不同的。孩子對事件的反應是獨特的，即使他們有相同的經驗。有些人可能會變得更加安靜或孤僻，而有些人可能會表現出來。

定期與您的孩子聯繫，並向他們保證他們可以向您尋求支持。

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

南澳大利亞擁有一個充滿活力的多元文化社區。每年我們都會歡迎成千上萬的新移民來到我們的州。然而，如果您來自海外，過渡到新文化可能會具有挑戰性。

賭博危害是最常見的挑戰之一 - 尤其是當您英語說得不好時，這使得您很難知道在哪裡以及如何獲得幫助。

許多來自文化和語言多元化 (CALD) 背景的人更有可能遭受賭博傷害的影響，其中包括：

無家可歸
債務和財務壓力
家庭和關係破裂。

我怎麼知道我是否需要幫助？

很難知道您的賭博是否已經從有趣的活動變成了您生活中的問題。識別標誌將幫助您了解您的賭博情況並決定是否需要尋求外部協助。

賭博對其他人造成傷害的跡像有哪些？

您是否有朋友或家人可能遭受賭博傷害？如果您不確定，請考慮以下跡象，它們可能表明存在賭博問題：

他們是否花越來越多的時間賭博？
他們是否隱瞞了自己的賭博行為？
他們總是看起來沒錢嗎？
他們借錢去賭博嗎？
帳單未付嗎？
賭博影響他們的工作嗎？
他們是否對金錢、財務記錄或缺勤保密？

如果其他人的賭博傷害了您，我們可以為您提供支持。即使他們還沒準備好，我們也可以提供如何幫助他們的指導。

社區可以做什麼？

社區可以在減少賭博危害和支持復原方面發揮重要作用。以下是一些想法：

盡量避免羞辱或孤立任何遭受賭博傷害的人。這會使情況變得更糟。透過承諾和集體努力，社區可以學會不評判並培養對受影響人群的同理心。

如果您是社區的領導者，就有責任提高社區對賭博和問題賭博的認識，挑戰消極態度並鼓勵人們尋求幫助。
創建社區大使，他們準備好談論自己在賭博危害方面的經驗。這將有助於減少他人的恥辱和羞恥，並鼓勵他們儘早尋求幫助。
用您自己的社區語言創建材料資源，例如小冊子或影片。為您的社區提供的資訊越多越好。

如果您是南澳大利亞任何多元化社區的關心成員，並且您需要本文討論的任何支持，請聯繫 PEACE 多元文化服務 在 (08)8245 8100 或造訪網站 www.askpeace.org.au

現在如何獲得幫助

您認為您可能有賭博問題嗎？如果是這樣，你並不是孤獨的。重要的是不要感到羞恥——我們隨時為您提供幫助。

不要因為你英文說得不好而感到尷尬。我們將為您提供一名口譯員。我們的支援人員也接受過培訓，能夠了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 1 部分中，我們談論「正常」程度的衝突。 我們來談談衝突 這是一個包含七部分的影片系列，每部分 5-10 分鐘，提供有益的學習內容和要點總結。

衝突是可以修復的

父母衝突的範圍可以從建設性的到破壞性的，甚至是最極端的家庭暴力。幸運的是，只要每個人都安全，正常程度的衝突是可以控制的，甚至可以給孩子學習和成長的機會。對您孩子的許多長期傷害是可以預防的，許多形式的衝突造成的損害是可以修復的。

孩子需要情感支持才能成長

就像植物需要土壤才能生長一樣，您的孩子也需要您的情感滋養來促進他們的情感和社交發展。身為父母，您就像園丁。您和您在孩子周圍建立的關係成為孩子成長的土壤。

父母之間的低度衝突是家庭生活的正常組成部分。雖然它可以包括遷就行為（例如保持冷靜、了解父母另一方的觀點），但有時它會變得具有破壞性。父母之間的破壞性衝突（例如憤怒、不信任、威脅、喊叫或「沉默對待」）就像毒素或壞土。您一開始可能看不到這種損害，但情緒毒素會對孩子的長期心理健康和未來的生活機會產生負面影響。

重要的是，大多數父母可以做出一些微小的改變，從而對孩子的生活產生很大的影響，讓他們茁壯成長。

反思

想想當你們在言語上發生分歧時，你如何回應你的伴侶或前伴侶，雖然令人不快，但並非不安全。您認清自己的無益行為嗎？如果你這樣做了，你可以採取一些措施來解決這個問題，先從不同的溝通方式開始。

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. 我們來談談衝突 is a seven-part video series, each 5–10 minutes in duration, with 支持性學習和關鍵要點.

愛與關懷塑造您的孩子

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.

你是他們的安全之地

就像植物需要太陽的能量才能生長一樣，培養安全依戀的護理氛圍為孩子的高級大腦的成長奠定了基礎，支持他們保持冷靜、管理自己的感受並最終應對壓力並茁壯成長的能力在現實世界。生命的前 1000 天（從受孕到孩子 2 歲生日）是您與孩子建立這種關係的獨特機會之窗。

安全的依戀也是未來關係的基礎。對父母的安全依附意味著孩子在與父母分離時可能不會那麼痛苦，更有信心地與他人相處，並發展出更強的社交技能。當他們冒險進入廣闊的世界時，他們會放心地知道，如果他們需要的話，你會是一個安全的避風港。

衝突會影響您的教養方式。當你做出反應時，你就無法在情感上為孩子提供幫助——而不是他們所需要的安全基礎。隨著時間的推移，這可能會動搖他們的發展基礎。如果衝突持續下去，他們的情感成長的許多部分就無法紮根…他們情感成長的重要部分可能會開始枯萎。

反思

考慮如何向孩子表達愛和關懷。你對他們的需求敏感嗎？您是否能夠積極回應並始終如一地實現這些目標？你的身體和情緒都可以嗎？這些都是幫助您的孩子發展並與您保持安全依戀的簡單方法。
