As pediatricians, we want parents to know: it’s okay to ask.
Ask about their mood.
Ask about school, friendships, stress and anxiety.
Ask when they seem different.
And yes, if you’re concerned, ask directly about su***de.
Talking about su***de does not put the idea into a child’s head. In fact, creating a safe, open conversation can help a young person feel heard and connected.
You don’t have to have all the answers. You just need to be willing to listen, without judgment, and help your child find the support they need.
Sometimes, asking the question can be the first step toward getting help.
At KIDCREW, we’re here to support the whole child — including their mental health and emotional wellbeing.
