Episode 4: Covid Kids. How is the Next Generation impacted by the Pandemic

Two experienced and respected mental health professionals: Dr. Harold Koplewicz, President and Medical Director of the Child Mind Institute and Dr. Christina Biedermann, Associate Professor at Adler University who is also a Psychoanalyst, talk about the impact and implications of Covid-19 on children and their communities. The conversation explores the potentially long term serious impact of the Pandemic on young children unless the symptoms of emotional problems are recognized early and the safety net protecting children is strengthened during this difficult time. 

This lively discussion provides preventative suggestions for parents and educators and compares the effects of the Pandemic on families and children with the effect of other generational traumas such as 9/11 and the Depression.
