Read about a new survey that found kids’ mental health is suffering more than one might think due to the ongoing pandemic.
Tomorrow, October 11 is World Mental Health Day, and it’s no secret that Americans are not okay. With the ongoing pandemic and a drastically shifted work and life balance for many, mental health has been at the top of people’s minds this year—and for good reason. According to a new survey fromParentsTogether, a national parent-led organization with over 2 million members, surveyed parents and kids around the country, looking at how the pandemic has impacted families and kids.
According to the survey, in the week before the report was released, 45 percent of kids said they felt sad some or a lot of the time, while 30 percent said they felt scared some or a lot of the time. “I miss seeing my friends and my mom having money to get us things we need. The last time I was scared, I was scared about not having a house.” – Cole, age 7, OK
