The first book on self-harm written for parents by parents.

Are you concerned that your child may be self-harming?

Are you wondering what to do for the best?

Do you need more information and help?

If so, this is the book for you.

An ever-increasing number of young people are turning to self-harm in order to cope with the pressures of modern living, and this poses a huge problem for parents and others who care for them.

This book provides the answers you need to questions such as:

- How do I know for sure whether my child is self-harming?

- How should I approach my child?

- What help and treatment is available to us?

- What can I do to help my child?

- How have other parents coped?

Full of the real-life experiences of other parents who have been there, this is a practical book that will both inform and equip you to help your child and yourself through this difficult time.
