"Things are worse now than 30 years ago... that's a horrible observation," reflects a retired general practitioner as he discusses the escalating mental health challenges faced by children today. This sentiment resonates deeply within communities, prompting the formation of support groups aimed at aiding parents navigating these turbulent waters.
In Yaxley, a dedicated support group has emerged to provide resources and a safe space for parents grappling with their children's mental health issues. The group focuses on fostering open discussions, sharing experiences, and offering practical advice on how to cope with the pressures that modern life imposes on young minds.
With increasing reports of anxiety, depression, and other mental health disorders among children, the need for such community initiatives has never been more critical. Parents are encouraged to engage with the group, which serves not only as a support network but also as a platform for education on mental health awareness and resources available to families in need.
