Mental health is a vast topic, shrouded in stigma of something dark, grim and difficult to deal with, yet it's an enormously important part of children's development. As the experts warn of a looming mental health crisis especially amongst the young, we open up the conversation to remove stigma from educating ourselves and our kids on mental health to navigate times of uncertainty.
A conversation with parents who are thinking about mental health already on how they are building resilience in the face of anxiety and fear; how do they spot change in behaviours that could signal mental health problems vs just naughty behaviour or teen mood swings; how does anorexia creep its way in; what can we do as parents to approach this topic.
