As we near the end of the school holidays, Beyond Blue provides resources that aim to support both parents’ and children’s mental health.
A strong and supportive family environment plays a vital role in shaping a child’s mental well-being. Positive parenting practices, healthy family dynamics, and access to reliable support systems all contribute to a child’s future success.
The weight of raising children can sometimes feel overwhelming. But remember, healthy parents raise healthy kids. That’s why taking care of your own mental health as a parents is crucial.
