We’re very cognizant about what’s going on with her emotionally. And we just want to make sure if there are issues that they are caught as early as possible so we can get her treatment or whatever it might be, medication, therapy, both. Because I don’t want her to have to suffer and she doesn’t have to suffer. So I think that we’re definitely on the look-out.

I think like any illness your desire as a parent to take care of your child is to catch that as soon as possible and to treat it and give them the best care that you possibly can give them.

We just saw some behaviors that indicated anxiety and we took her to the doctor and her pediatrician and he addressed, he always addresses mental health whenever we see him, but, he knew of our family history and so, my family history, and so we talked about that. And I think that when a child goes into his pediatrician for a physical that that is just a piece of the physical, you know? There’s blood work and the physical exam and there are questions that are asked, behavioral kind of things, and it’s just part of the whole deal. And I think that makes it less threatening.

Craig
I think that what’s important is that the doctor educate himself regarding mental health issues for children and pediatrics especially, and that he ask questions, he has a dialogue with the parents and the family. And because there is no guidebook that comes with your child.
