Sometimes, the hardest conversations are the most important. If you sense a friend is struggling with their mental health, take a moment to ask how they’re doing. Small gestures can lead to meaningful support. Find out how to approach these talks with confidence: https://seizetheawkward.org/conversation/learn-the-signs

The parent-child connection is one of the most influential factors in a child's mental and emotional development.
Here are some ways in which the parent-child connection can impact mental health:

💗Secure Attachment: A secure attachment between a child and their parent provides a sense of safety and security, which forms the foundation for healthy emotional development. Children with secure attachments are more likely to develop resilience and cope effectively with stress.
💗 Emotional Regulation: Parents play a crucial role in helping children regulate emotions. Through sensitive and responsive interactions, children can identify and express feelings constructively for better mental health.
💗 Self-Esteem: Positive parental involvement and validation contribute to a child's self-worth and self-esteem. Children who feel loved and accepted by their parents tend to have a positive self-image and faith in their abilities.
💗 Resilience: A strong parent-child connection can shield against traumatic experiences. Children who feel supported become more resilient, helping them navigate life's challenges and lowering their risk of mental health issues later on.
💗 Mental Health Awareness: When parents prioritize their children's mental health, it normalizes discussing feelings and seeking help, leading to better mental health outcomes for kids.

Your mental health is a lot like your physical health. You won't always feel your best or be at 100%. Understanding when to seek help is important and sometimes necessary for yourself and potentially for a loved one.

Our partners always strive to provide resources and information regarding mental health and start the conversation around su***de. For more information and resources specific to our community, follow Resilient at Resilient: A Whitman County Task Force!
