NCS would like to hear from Mumsnetters about the moment you realised that your teenager was becoming an adult.
Natasha Kizzie from NCS Trust says: "From their first driving lesson to their first holiday without you, these pivotal moments in a young person’s life can be our proudest yet, whilst also being a stark reminder of just how quickly they grow up! That’s why programmes like NCS can be such defining moments in their transition to adulthood.
The programme helps young people to make positive life choices by giving them responsibility for their own decisions in a safe environment away from their home setting and with people their own age. By trying new challenges and taking control of their own development, young people return from the programme noticeably more mature, confident in their abilities and ready to take on their future."
When did you first realise that your teenager was well on their way to becoming an adult? Perhaps it was when they finished secondary school or maybe when they got their first job? Perhaps they came up with a wise take on a tricky situation that showed you that you really didn't need to worry about them so much after all.
Whatever the defining moment was for you and your teenager, NCS would love to hear about it.
