5 ways to support your child/young person's emotional wellbeing:
1. Creating a safe and loving home environment. Make the home a place where there is open communication but taking care about serious family issues such as major health issues, marital problems or financial issues as these may worry some children.
2. "A family that plays together stays together". Simplistic as it may sound, this is a powerful tool to create family togetherness and a sense of belonging.
3. "A family that eats together stays together". Strong bonds are made when we share a meal and share the day's experiences.
4. Recognise effort as well as achievement and give praise when appropriate. Show interest in your child's interests, activities and friendships.
5. Recognise when professional help is needed and support your child/young person through this process as it can be overwhelming to speak to unfamiliar people about feelings.
