Episode 53-To Tell or Not to Tell? Talking to School about Your Child's Mental Health Care
Episode 53- Should you tell your child's school about their mental health care concerns? As a child psychiatrist, I answer this question for every patient and family that I work with. Given that kids spend over 75% of their day in school, thinking through this question is critical particulary if your child is already engaged in mental health care treatment. The answer is unique to every family and individual, but it is worth Thinking It Through! Listen in as Dr. Naidoo discusses the pros and cons of talking to your child school about their mental health care.
