Features: Health is not just the absence of disease, but also the well-being of the body, mind, and social adaptation, encompassing both physical and mental health. With the improvement of children's health care in China, infections and nutritional diseases occurring in children and adolescents are largely uncontrolled, while psychological and behavioral problems that threaten children's health are becoming increasingly prominent. This is especially true due to changes in family structures, lifestyles, parent-child relationships, and parenting concepts brought about by economic development, as well as negative social influences. These factors add stress to children's development, and with parents' overly high expectations and excessive academic burdens, as well as intensified interpersonal crises, it is easy for psychological and behavioral disorders to arise. Based on children's psychological characteristics and family health care principles, this book explains in an accessible manner the common psychological and behavioral problems children face and their manifestations, helping parents to prevent and identify these issues early on, thereby providing guidance for proper handling. This book is an excellent parenting companion for every family.
