Structure and routine help promote overall mental well-being. During #summerbreak, children can lose this structure and fall out of a healthy rhythm. #Parents can help their children maintain a sense of rhythm by providing their children with structure in the following ways:

💤 Set a regular sleep schedule: A regular sleep schedule will help regulate emotions in children and teens and improve cognitive functions like memory and attention.

🤸 Enlisting them in activities: Putting your child in something like sports or camp will give them something to look forward to and keep them active, and the regular meeting or practice times will reinforce a sense of rhythm.

📅 Creating a daily schedule: Consistent, daily schedules, such as breakfast, dinner, or other activities can give kids a sense of rhythm and help children know what to expect each day.

By implementing these strategies, parents can help give their child structure and routine during summer break, which can promote physical and mental well-being and help prepare them for a successful return to the school year.

Lack of emotional connection to family members.

The desire to feel in control after losing it.

Difficulty verbalizing emotions.

These are just some reasons a teen might engage in self-harming activities.

If your child is practicing #selfharm, remember to listen without judgment, offer #empathy, and encourage professional support. Visit choosementalhealth.org for more resources.

Sometimes, the easiest way to spot a change in your child's #mentalhealth is to watch for sudden changes in their behavior: A change in friend groups, a decrease in appetite or an increase in irritability can all be signs of deteriorating mental health. 💔

If you recognize these changes in your child, approach your child in a warm non-hostile way and let them know that you've noticed the changes and that, if they'd like to talk, you're always available. 💕

You may find that there is no issue at all. They may be going through natural developmental changes, common in adolescence. Alternatively, you may find that there are more serious issues, like #trauma, substance abuse, or #anxiety. 💭

As a parent, you know your child. It's important to be observant and let them know that you're always available to talk. Identifying issues early on can help prevent them from becoming more significant later on. 💚
