Unfortunately the impact that covid is having on children, physically and mentally, is often over looked. I would be interested to hear if this scenario is a breeding ground for phobias?

Is there any practical help out there for children showing signs of worrying new phobias? What can we do to help our kids cope with this difficult situation?

It is heartbreaking so see the impact this is having on kids - something which the government and politicians seem to be ignoring. Why?

My concern is that every day that goes by and nothing is done, the situation will just get worse and worse. Is there anything which parents can do at home to help our children cope?

I am reading more and more that mental health services in the UK are leaving out children exposed to excessive fears. While something needs to be done, we are still in the middle of this huge pandemic. Not sure there is an easy answer?
