Our child and adolescent psychotherapist, Molly Redmond, has raised growing concerns about the number of young people using our service who are engaging in self-harm and expressing suicidal thoughts.
She notes that excessive mobile phone and device use appears to be a significant contributing factor, with school attendance also suffering as a result.
To support parents, we’ve created a practical guide that highlights the risks linked to device use and how to respond effectively.
Please remember: any threat of su***de or self-harm should always be taken seriously.
You’ll find the link to the guide in the comments. http://l.taxiwatch.ie/help
