Description
xThe main purpose of this book is to start a heartful dialogue between adults and children about life and feelings in the family. From the Foreword by Her Majesty Queen Mary of Denmark:
"This book 'talk about it...' is informative and very helpful. The illustrations and text discuss issues that might seem difficult to share with children. The book is also a tool that makes it easier for us to talk about our thoughts and feelings - and this, is so important for both children and adult" Every child will meet an adult who has a mental illness - either in their own family or in their friends' families.
In every school class, between 2 and 5 children have a mother, father, brother or sister with a psychiatric illness.
Schools know about some of these children, but by far the most are overlooked.
What do children know about mental illness?
Unfortunately, the answer is: Very little. The book provides children with knowledge, understanding for each other, and insight into the fact that it is never the child's fault if adults become ill.
It is written for small children, older children, and adults, who themselves were once children.
Talk about it... with every child has three parts:
- One part is about the mind and psyche, different feelings and anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and post traumatic stress disorder.
- Another part is about children who know someone with mental illness.
- The last part provides ideas about how we can talk with every child about difficult things and how people can become well. Children can easily read the book on their own. Adults can also use it as a guide for talking with children. The information for children will give adults an insight into their thoughts and feelings. Likewise, the information for adults can be useful for children who would like a deeper understanding about the issues. The book is only small - yet, it deals with some big issues. The text is clear and loving so children and adults are able to talk about these issues together. Talk about the pictures, be open, share your own thoughts and pay attention to what grabs the children's attention. Listen - and continue the conversation.
Do not put this book up on the bookshelf. Keep it out and accessible, so children can flip through it and read for themselves. You can also read it together, research the topic, and talk about the pictures. Pay attention to what the children are interested in. Stay there. Listen, think out loud, and talk together.
