What role do parents and caregivers play in a child's psychological health?
Parents and caregivers play a crucial role in shaping a child's emotional and psychological well-being. A supportive, nurturing environment can help children cope better with stress and adversity. Parental involvement in treatment plans, open communication, and reassurance can significantly reduce a child’s anxiety and promote a positive outlook. On the other hand, parental stress and anxiety can negatively impact the child, making it essential for caregivers to also seek support.
