The emotions center of your young child’s brain is developing faster than the thinking part of their brain. That is why they sometimes get swamped with emotions and have unreasonable meltdowns. Your young child needs your calm energy to help their overwhelmed brain calm down. You have probably already noticed that timeouts, threats and punishments really don’t help and actually often make things worse. So how do we help young children manage their emotions and their behavior.

Mental health literacy is the ability to prevent, recognize and cope with mental health conditions.

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health disorders were the most common diseases of childhood. Some are even declaring a pediatric mental health emergency. Whether your child is doing fine and you want to prevent future mental health issues, your child just doesn’t seem like their usual self, or your child has actually declared suicidal thoughts, you can help.

“The parent-child relationship is the most powerful mental health intervention known to humankind.” – Bessel van de Kolk

In an era of heightened mental health challenges among children and adolescents, this library serves as a powerful resource for parents seeking to nurture their child’s overall well-being. Grounded in the profound impact of the parent-child relationship, this collection empowers you with the knowledge and strategies to foster a positive, mentally-healthy environment in your family. Gain insights into recognizing early signs of distress, understanding the interplay between your mental health and your child’s, and implementing proactive approaches to promote emotional resilience.

Are you concerned about your child or teen’s mental health? Wondering how you can really help? Do you question how well mental health providers respect culture and ethnicity? Some are declaring a “pediatric mental health emergency” because so many parents are showing up in hospital emergency rooms with fears about kids’ emotional issues. Many parents are not sure where to turn and wonder what is best for their struggling children and teens during these challenging times. Listen to our panel of Peace At Home clinicians answer questions about mental health and help you think about how to integrate your culture and ethnicity into the treatment process.

Talking to Kids about Gun Violence

Challenges & Solutions

Previously hosted FaceBook Live panel discussion. Read our summary of this discussion below then click on the lesson to access the video and information about our Experts.

Talking to Kids about Gun Violence explores ways you can help your kids deal with violent events like war and school shootings. Our most important suggestion is to manage what kids are seeing and hearing (online, tv, social media, YouTube videos, TikTok, video games, radio, etc). Even when kids seem engrossed in activities, they are picking up on what is going on around them. Each time young children see an image of a violent act, they believe it is happening at that moment, even if it is the same image shown over and and over again. Watch or just listen to this important previously-recorded discussion.

Having strategies to maintain calm and help our children feel safe in an unpredictable world can help. Please review the handout below for important tips and tools to give you clarity and confidence.
