How To Talk To Children About Depression | Channel Mum

"Perry, you're not naughty
and you've not upset your mum.
It's not your fault
- it's never your fault -
that your mummy feels this glum."

If you are suffering with depression, it can be really hard to explain it to your kids. This wonderful book by Helen Bashford is a perfect way to help our children to understand the difficult subject of mental health. It reassures them that it's not their fault, and explains the reasons why mummy may not be feeling 100%.
