Some children are rendered more vulnerable to mental health problems as they are seen as being different due to their wiring, sexuality, gender identity, looks, or family background. We need to challenge the discourse that places the blame on children and parents and instead understand the social roots of these problems. In this session, we will listen to and honour the stories of parents and young people who have struggled with mental health difficulties and build a “call to action” so that, together, we can be better and do better.
