Walsall Council has launched a new campaign for parents who argue frequently.
The service aims to work with families and provide one-to-one support by trained professionals to help break the cycle.
Awareness for the campaign will be promoted over the coming months through various organisations, including community groups, librarys and the police service.
“Firstly, it’s important to remind our residents that it is completely normal to have conflict or arguments during our everyday lives,” said Councillor Stacie Elson, Portfolio Holder for Children’s Services, Walsall Council.
“But, in some cases, due to various reasons, parents may find themselves disagreeing or arguing often, in ways that are affecting not only them, but other family members around them too, such as their children.
“We really want to let families know that if this is something they think they could do with some help with, support is available at Walsall Council.
“There is absolutely zero judgement or shame in needing support, and our highly trained team have worked with so many families to completely change the way they work through conflict together, in a way that doesn’t have detrimental effects upon family members’ emotional and social health.
“Parenthood is hard, and relationships can easily become strained, so don’t be afraid to access the support if you need it. “
The support will be provided via Walsall Council’s family hubs.
