Editor's Letter

Dear friends,

The Family Enrichment Society’s September conference on teenage sexuality is just around the corner. Celebrate Real Love! on Saturday 6th September at the Suntec Convention Centre brings together well-known developmental psychologist and Professor of Education at the State University of New York at Cortland, Professor Thomas Lickona, and the gifted and motivational husband-wife educators from Australia, Jonathan and Karen Doyle, to talk to our young people and parents about the many issues young people face today regarding their sexuality, relationships and love.

We would like to invite you to make the most of this rare opportunity and join us for what is promising to be an eye-opening and informative event on a subject which has such potential to alter the course of a young person’s life in a way few other issues can.

The conference team is happy to announce that the first two hundred youth tickets have been sponsored so that you can now get one youth ticket free for every youth ticket purchased. These special tickets are limited and are available on a first-come-first-served basis.

For more information on the conference, please visit www.familyes.org.sg.
