Mental Health & Wellbeing
Do you look at your child and worry that they have a mental health problem? What does ‘mental health’ mean anyway and why does it sound so negative? We now know that mental health is very important and can affect physical health. We also know that everyone is different, that ‘normal’ doesn’t exist and that negative emotions are actually just as important as positive ones. Resilience is an important skill that is only learnt by experiencing and working through the challenges in life. ‘Protecting’ children from negative emotions is not helpful for their mental development… being a parent is not easy. But help is here in a range of books to help with emotions, healthy habits and how to guide your children through the emotional rollercoaster that is life.
