Supporting your child with positive mental health at home
Children's mental health is just as important as their physical health and there are many ways in which parents and carers can support their child at home. Below are some of the strategies which can be tried at home. Some strategies will take time to embed, so don't give up and persevere.
How parents can instill a growth mindset at home
Research shows that parents can have a powerful impact on their childrens’ mindsets. The language you use and the actions you take show your children about what you expect. Giving process praise, talking about the brain, accepting mistakes as learning opportunities, and understanding the role of emotions in learning are all practices you can begin today
Mindfulness is one strategy that can reduce the stress of being a parent. Mindfulness is a way of being. Practicing mindfulness means paying attention to what’s happening in the moment and accepting those experiences and feelings without judgment. What does that look like in the everyday life of a parent?
If you're experiencing challenging behaviour from your child, here are our tips for what you can do and where to get help.
We want to see a world where no young person feels alone with their mental health, and all young people get the mental health support they need, when they need it, no matter what.
