Children don't experience mental health issues...
Even very young children may show early warning signs of mental health concerns. These mental health conditions are often clinically diagnosable and can be a product of the interaction of biological, psychological, and social factors. Half of all mental health disorders show first signs before a person turns 14-years-old, and three-quarters of mental health disorders begin before age 24. Unfortunately, only half of children and adolescents with diagnosable mental health conditions receive the treatment they need. Early mental health support can help a child before problems interfere with other developmental needs.

For sure! Children need the same love, support and attention as an adult would need in stressful situations. Sometimes we tend to sweep children's stress and bad experiences under a rug, thinking it's not a big deal and real problems will begin whej they're an adult. Problems are problems, big or small. Struggle is struggle, no matter who is struggling ♡
