Kids Under Stress
Childhood stress is often neglected by parents but it is actually a serious issue for kids. In fact, stress can be both beneficial and harmful to children.
Even though stress helps children develop the skills they need to cope with and grow as mature managers of life that is surrounded with potentially threatening situations, parents still need to support them. Since stress can sometimes lead kids to tragedy too, it's best for parents to devise plans to de-stress their kids. .
