The new school year is coming, and whether your child is going in as a nervous first timer or seasoned pro, it can still feel like a lonely place. If your child is starting a new school, has had to move school, or is struggling to make friends, the resulting loneliness can be a big drain on their mental health. You could encourage them to talk to an adult that they feel safe with. This can help them to see things differently, give them new ideas about how to cope, and could help change things.

Share this message with young people you know who have received their A-Level results today! Can you remember how you felt on results day? Results can bring up lots of different feelings. There might be excitement, tummies full of anxiety and worries about the future. But together, we can remind young people that the grades they receive don't define them 💚 Image description: "No matter what, I'm proud of you this exam results day and always," written on a yellow sticky note on a light blue background. #ResultsDay #NSPCCParenting

We know the world of gaming can be confusing for parents and carers. And the thought of discussing with their child how long they spend online can feel overwhelming. . . or even a little scary 😧 Childline has lots of advice available on what to do if a young person’s gaming habit is becoming an addiction, as well as tips on playing safely online: https://bit.ly/3Wx3Sw4 #NSPCCParenting Image description: A cartoon depicting two people: one adult standing with a perplexed expression and a speech bubble that says "I thought Fortnite was the name of the game, not the average playing time?" The other person, a teenager, is sitting under a homemade blanket fort using a laptop, with a do-not-disturb sign.
