When a child can’t make sense of a loved one’s mental illness, fear fills in the blanks.
It can be overwhelming and confusing for a child to see a parent, sibling, or friend struggling with mental illness. This short guide gives you the language to explain what’s going on in a clear, age-appropriate way, so children feel safe and supported.
You’ll learn how to:
• Explain mental illness in simple, reassuring language
• Answer the tough questions your children may have (“Is it my fault?” “Why is he always so nervous?”)
• Give kids the tools to stay grounded even during tough moments
