🌟 Supporting Our Children's Mental Well-Being in the New Year 🌟 As we enter a new year, it's crucial to focus on the mental well-being of our children. Here are some ways we can support them: 1. Open Communication: Create a safe space for them to express their feelings and thoughts. Regularly check in and listen actively. 2. Encourage Healthy Habits: Promote balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and adequate sleep. These are foundational for mental health. 3. Model Resilience: Show them how to handle stress and setbacks with a positive attitude. Your example can be a powerful teaching tool. 4. Foster a Growth Mindset: Celebrate their efforts and progress, not just outcomes. Encourage them to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth. 5. Support their Interests: Engage with their hobbies and passions. It boosts their confidence and provides a healthy outlet for stress. 6. Seek Professional Help if Needed: Don’t hesitate to reach out to counselors or therapists if your child needs additional support. By actively nurturing their mental health, we set our children up for a successful and fulfilling year. Let’s commit to being their strongest advocates and allies in 2024. #MentalHealth #Parenting #ChildDevelopment #SupportOurChildren #NewYearNewGoals

May is #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth. It's a good time to reflect on the state of youth mental health and how we can provide support. At NC Child we are mapping the resources that are available in North Carolina and conducting focus groups to better understand the issue (from the impacts of the pandemic to the role of social media). And we are advocating for solutions. In the end the youth mental health crisis is part of a larger one. And it's something we can all work together to address. #MentalHealth

It’s back-to-school time! There is a goal setting worksheet in this link for youth that I really like. It is a mental health resource to help a teen evaluate their skills and needs to write any goal. As parents we often help our children achieve their goals, by managing the short term goals for them. We arrange or schedule the incremental activities they need to achieve this goal. They put in the work, we help them get there. It is helpful to demonstrate these activities, but teaching them to evaluate themselves, manage their goal setting and activities to achieve their goals themselves holds lifelong value for work and play.
