Abstract
"As parents, we worry about our children - about their physical health, performance at school, the types of friends they have, and, of course, their mental health. Every day seems to bring new and expanding issues and disorders and troubling statistics about the rise of mental illness in children and teens. It's usually obvious what to do for physical injuries like broken bones, but when it comes to our children's mental health, the answers are much less clear, and sometimes even contradictory.
"Pier Bryden and Peter Szatmari, top child and adolescent psychiatrists, are here to help. Using their combined six decades working with families and kids - and their own experiences as parents - they break down the stigma of mental health illness and walk parents through the warning signs, risk factors, prevention strategies, and the process of diagnosis and treatment for mental health challenges arising from: anxiety, substance use disorders, eating disorders, sleep disorders, depression, trauma, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, psychosis, ADHD, and autism.
"The most important thing to remember as a parent is that you and your child are not alone and there is a lot you can do to improve your child's mental health. The road ahead isn't always easy or straightforward, but start here to learn how to advocate for your child's well-being"--from the inside front cover.

Abstract
De la déprime au « bonheur intérieur brut », de la souffrance au travail aux « gérontotechnologies » permettant de réussir son vieillissement, de la possibilité de « sortie de crise » à « la maximalisation de son capital santé mentale », le spectre de la santé mentale occupe désormais des pans de plus en plus importants de nos vies. En quelques années, elle sera passée du champ psychiatrique au champ économique, se départissant de son aura négative associée à la folie pour revêtir les habits attrayants de la « santé mentale positive ».Cerner ses métamorphoses devient une nécessité politique puisqu?en son nom se dessinent de nouvelles politiques publiques ayant pour perspective énoncée le bonheur, le bien-être et une vie réussie pour tous les citoyens. Pour autant, peut-on détacher cette recherche de bien-être du contexte général traversant notre société ? Promouvoir la qualité de la vie alors que dans le même temps les conditions de vie des populations se dégradent, prétendre à la déstigmatisation alors que de nouveaux processus ségrégatifs se développent : ces paradoxes dévoileraient-ils le nouveau visage de la santé mentale en tant qu?opérateur de légitimation de la rationalité néolibérale ? Si nous devrons nous élever contre ces injonctions au bonheur, de bien-être et de vie réussie « du berceau à la tombe », ce sera pour mieux analyser ce que recouvrent ces entités présentées comme « naturelles », comme mesures de bon sens allant de soi, avec pour objectifs énoncés de faciliter, d?optimiser voire

Sometimes, emotions like anger or jealousy or excitement can seem too big to keep inside. Me and My Feelings is here to teach kids that it?s okay to have big feelings! They will learn how to calm down those strong emotions so they don?t feel overwhelmed and can continue to take on the world.
This book gives kids the skills to stay in control - by breathing deeply, saying positive things to themselves, talking about their feelings instead of keeping them inside, and more. Help young girls and boys learn to deal with all kinds of feelings, including the hard ones like sadness, anxiety, or even fear.
Inside Me and My Feelings, you?ll find:
- TANGIBLE IDEAS THAT HELP: This book is packed with informative ways to help kids handle their feelings. They can use the exercises to see which tips, tricks, and habits work best for them.
- QUIZZES & ACTIVITIES: Kids can get to know themselves with quizzes like 'Do My Emotions Rule Me?,' along with other fun exercises and activities created especially for kids ages 7-10.
- EMPATHY FOR THE EMOTIONS OF OTHERS: When kids understand their own emotions and feelings, they can also empathize with other people?s feelings - like their family and friends.
With Me and My Feelings, the next time big feelings get too big - kids will know just what to do!

Everywhere we turn, there are messages that tell us who, what and how we?re supposed to be. So, we learn to hide our struggles and protect ourselves from shame, judgment, criticism and blame by seeking safety in pretending and perfection"--from the Publisher.

Ils tentent de s'y adapter pour répondre aux exigences de leur vie personnelle, familiale et scolaire. Parfois, cela devient trop difficile et c'est la crise, ne serait-ce que parce que le cerveau n'atteint sa pleine maturité qu'entre 40 et 45 ans, alors que la vie réserve autant de belles surprises que de larges défis, voire des traumas. Ils vivent comme une impression de voler en mille éclats. Comme un puzzle qui tombe sur le sol. Les mille et une pièces se séparent. C'est la panique, même s'ils ne s'en rendent pas compte.

*be more fully present with your children, and more able to give them your undivided attention
*embrace imperfection and focus on the things that really matter
*and more
