"...In an age when anxiety, depression, and suicide in children is at an all-time high, Bring Them Closer is a beacon of hope."--Leah Everson (MDiv), Public Speaker and Writer"...While there's no quick fix, or a one-size-fits-all approach, I'm convinced that the stories and principles in this book will be of great encouragement, and great help to those who read it..."--Andrew Neufeld, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Alongside YouOur kids are not okay.The children and youth mental health crisis is at an all-time high. Anxiety and depression are skyrocketing. Over the last ten years, there has been a 55% increase in the hospitalization of children and youth due to mental health concerns, and many parents are at a loss for how to deal with some of the issues their children are struggling with. In Bring Them Closer, author Connie Jakab shares her own experiences with her son, who went from being hospitalized due to suicidal threats at the tender age of eight, to overcoming his anxiety and depression. She digs deeper into questions like: What does the idea "you never send the hurting away; you bring them closer" really look like?How do we create a connection with our children, so they live healed and whole? How do we see our children free of anxiety, depression, and behavioural issues? Bring Them Closer will provide parents with tools that can help their families deal with the challenges of parenting a child who deals with mental health difficulties as well as offer some preventive measures that can keep them from happening in the first place.
