Do you have any advice for the parent of a 13 year old girl in these modern times? It seems like a desire for a diagnosis or ailment is ubiquitous amongst her friend group and many others. She likely does struggle with ADD and we are taking action on that front.

I just want to fix everything wrong with her and while she has started counselling, anything suggested she works on just feels like more work and stress. She's overwhelmed by school a lot of the time.

Thanks for the reply. I sometimes forget how rough the world really is for youngsters and how aware of that roughness they are.

Thanks for the reply! I'll keep on keeping on. Any advice for managing my own mental health while we help manage hers? I think I'm struggling more, at times.

Love your insights! Thanks so much!

Well said!
