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'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.

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

Love your insights! Thanks so much!

Well said!
