Her mother says you canât see her daddyâs hurt because itâs inside his head.
One in five adults experiences depression in their lifetime, but young children are often left in the dark when their mother or father suddenly canât play like they used to.
Together Things will resonate with the thousands of young children who know what itâs like to live with a parent experiencing mental illness. It will help them to understand â" in an age appropriate and sensitive way â" that it is okay for them to feel mad or sad about their parentâs illness, but that, while their parent is getting better, they may have to do different things together to preserve their relationship, such as reading stories or drawing pictures, instead of the imaginative play their parent cannot currently envision through the haze of mental illness.
Through wondrous illustrations and a compelling story, young children can understand the importance of mental health discussions and that sometimes they must adapt their interactions while the people in their lives focus on their mental health.
