A Mind of Their Own 2nd Ed: Building Your Child's Emotional Wellbeing in a Fast-Changing World

A revised and updated resource on children’s
emotional wellbeing in a post-pandemic world
It’s not hard to recall the stress and apprehension that flooded
in during the “unprecedented” times in 2020, but the impact
the uncertainty and isolation had on children in 2020 persists
even five years on. The pandemic intensified children’s feelings
of anxiety and low self-esteem, moving their lives online and
separating them from friends and family. How can parents
enable their children to flourish now that families have returned
to “normal” living?
This updated and revised second edition discusses body
confidence, bullying, dealing with disappointment, and strong
emotions. It gives practical steps to take when real-life challenges
come. With encouragement and creative activities, it will
equip families to form good practices like listening well, setting
consistent boundaries, and establishing a growth mindset.
Backed by solid research and grounded in real-life experience,
A Mind of Their Own is for parents who feel helpless as
their happy, easy-going children are overwhelmed with pressure
and anxiety. With a focus on family, Katharine Hill equips
parents to build resilience and care for their children’s mental
wellbeing, from childhood to teenage years.
