General Status about Youth Mental Health Awareness
Just like adults, children are also likely to develop mental health conditions. But the hardest part is, it is difficult for the parents to identify if their child has a mental condition or not. According to the studies, it has been known that nearly one in five children has a mental illness that can deteriorate the quality of their lives significantly. If your child is showing an abrupt behaviour, it could be a red signal that your child may be suffering from a mental condition.
