Chapter 13: The Mental Health Meltdown
Scenario:
Your kid says, "I'm sad all the time. I think I need help."
You want to fix it, but you also know you can't just slap a Band-Aid on depression.
What would you do?
Do you say, "You're just being dramatic, go outside"?
Or do you listen, validate their feelings, and get them real help—even if it means therapy, meds, or just more time together?
