Solo Parent Society

TOPICThis week we are discussing our REWIND episode: “How To Tell If Our Kids Are Ok” with guest Kyle Cruze PAIN POINTOne of the most heart-wrenching parts of parenting is seeing our kids struggle. When our child is dealing with physical pain, we rush to their aid and see what we can do to help. Even if they’re insisting they’re fine, you know a broken bone when you see it. But, mental health is altogether different. While mental illness can and does present itself physically, so much of anxiety and depression happens inside the mind. Mental health is a serious topic that thankfully has become more widely talked about and acknowledged in recent years. We often feel helpless or unsure of what to do when our child is mentally struggling—especially as solo parents. How do we effectively help our kids deal with anxiety or depression in a healthy way? How can we tell if our kids are okay? We’re so excited to revisit this episode. GUEST BIOKyle is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Tennessee.S
