Top Tips for Supporting Your Child’s Mental Heath

While it may feel like there are a lot of elements to consider in your child’s life, one of which should be most important is your child’s mental health. Seeing that your child can cope in different situations, following other students in the classroom and learning how to be resilient are all part of efforts to keep your child happy and healthy.

 

Here are some top tips to support your child with their mental health throughout their school time and at home that they can carry with them for life, with the advice given from this private school in Kent.

Identify what makes them overwhelmed

It could be difficult to initially identify what areas make a child specifically stressed. It doesn’t mean that you can’t look at your child’s day and see what can be changed. Ask them directly about what they dislike doing and what makes them feel happy. These alone will help you with alleviating pressure on your child and work to make changes that will help them manage their health better.

Remind them that some of their days will be better than others

It would be amazing to have every day of our lives full of happiness, but sadly it can be difficult to achieve. While it’s a pain, it doesn’t mean that the world has to stop and not move forward – this is where you can help your child with managing mistakes and what they deem failures. Children may not be aware of this yet, so it’s up to you to guide them through these struggles and give them direction.

Keep things in perspective

It’s important to show your child that there’s always a way to improve things, but it has to be mutually agreed. Direct them through difficult times by taking them away from the situation that upsets or stresses them and work on solutions on your own terms. If you feel that you need further help, there’s no shame in taking your child to a doctor who will be able to guide them in the right direction.

Hi and welcome to The Willow Tree. I’m Michelle, also known as Shel and I am a mama to three beautiful crazy kids – I have two handsome boys and a wild and wonderful girl.

I really wanted a concrete place to share my love for travel, in particular Disney and offer my readers a chance to gain some knowledge around what we love to do as a family of 5.

I share our family adventures which include days out, travel advice and tips, holiday reviews, restaurant visits and of course, our love for Disney, including Disneyland Paris and Walt Disney World.

Life is about creating memories, and here we are sharing them with you

xoxo
