Children and Mental Health: Why It Is Important?
Raising a child can be challenging.​ All children are anxious, irritable, aggressive at times, or they occasionally find it challenging to pay attention, or interact with others. In most of the kids these are just typical developmental phases. However, such behaviours may indicate a more serious problem in some children.
Our aim is to help parents identify, understand, and manage it better, in order to help the child.
