Emory Exclusive class: Mental Health Essentials for Parents: Knowledge and Skills to Support Your Child

February 23, 2023 12:00 pm EDT/EST

Expert

Ruth Freeman,LCSW

Challenges & Solutions

All children are sad, anxious, irritable, or aggressive at times. Occasionally kids find it challenging to sit still, pay attention, or interact with others. In most cases, these are just typical phases in their development. However, these behaviors may indicate a more serious problem in some children. Without attention, these mental health conditions can prevent children from reaching their full potential. 

Whether your child is doing fine and you want to prevent future mental health issues, or just doesn’t seem like their usual self, or has actually declared concerning thoughts, you can help.

Setting Boundaries With Tweens and Teens While Encouraging Independence

February 21, 2023 8:00 pm EDT/EST

Expert

Ruth Freeman,LCSW

Challenges & Solutions

We all want our kids to grow up to be capable, competent people who can find their own way in the world. But how do you help them get there? How do you know when tweens and teens are ready to do things on their own? 

A strong positive relationship with your tween or teen is the basis of cooperation and helping them stay safe. Parents often think that if they find the just right punishment, their kids will cooperate. This myth can get in the way of building a positive connection with your child and keeping it strong even as they grow more independent. This class will help you recognize the importance of the parent-child connection to help teens stay safe as they explore the world.

Help Your Young Child Feel Safe and Secure

February 16, 2023 12:00 pm EDT/EST

Expert

JoAnn Robinson,PhD

Challenges & Solutions

Signaling safety to our children is a Peace at Home essential principle. Children look to their caregivers for signals of safety or danger. It is important that you recognize the nature of your own anxious responses and have tools to manage those. A child who feels safe in relation to their parents and caregivers will naturally use social-emotional strategies to problem solve. When you understand how to signal to your child that they are safe, you are better able to protect their mental health. To grow and develop positively, young children need to feel secure. They need family life to remain pleasurable and playful even in uncertain times.

Challenges & Solutions

Your child is growing up and your role is changing. It’s wonderful to see them realize new dreams and make new goals. Yet it can also weigh on us as parents, as we see our job changing and worry about missing them. The family which we have grown comfortable with is shifting as we now parent an emerging adult.

Our children are also going through their own major transition. We want to support them emotionally and financially, while also teaching them self-care and independence.
