How China’s Parents Are Finally Wising Up To Teens’ Mental Health Troubles

Описание: Some people might consider it mollycoddling, while others would call it a much needed break. Either way, Chinese mum Tang Lei is okay with her only child, Yue Yue, dropping out of school until her mental health struggles improve.

As more children and teens report signs of depression, anxiety, and stress in China, more parents are looking into how they can better support their child’s wellbeing. Parenting workshops have become popular for instance - but those looking to connect more with their kids, have to first unlearn the stigma of mental health from their generation.
