Description: | Select Guide Rating This important new book about working with children of parents suffering a mental illness focusses on the relationship between children and young people, parents and professionals, and the emotional issues they all face, offering different perspectives as well as action points which promote resilience in the children. Mental illness in a parent presents children with multiple challenges, including stigma, self-doubt and self-blame, ongoing anxiety and depression, that are rarely discussed in the public domain. This important new book, written by young people who have lived through these experiences, as well as professionals working alongside their families, highlights the relationships between children, parents and professionals, and the emotional issues they all face. A key focus of the book is the relationships in all combinations between the children, parents and professionals, as well as the responses to each other illustrated throughout. It will be ideal for all those working in the health, social and educational professions, as well as parents and children themselves. |
