"Growing Up Together Plus" (Pećnik, Starc, Ljubešić, Jeić, Pribela-Hodap and Grubić, 2014) is a version of the universal parenting support program „Growing Up Together” for parents of preschool children (Pećnik & Starc, 2010) adapted to the needs of parents with a young child with developmental disabilities (CWD). |

Parental competencies constitute one of the central contents of the programs for the promotion of positive parenting.
