Every person is born into a family and every person has a family. Family is an inseparable part of human beings, sometimes near, sometimes far, and sometimes in the past or the future.
Family is the biggest source of support and the biggest source of stress. An event that affects one of the individuals, affects the whole family or everything that affects the family affects all family members, from youngest to oldest. For this reason, the mental health of the individual should not be considered separately from the mental health of the family.
The family is a complex system in which members are bound to each other by close emotional bonds, common goals, expectations, and experiences. When the mother is depressed, the father loses his job, or there are conflicts between the parents, it is not possible for the whole family, especially the children, to be shaken.
The most important responsibility in the spiritual development of children and adolescents falls on the parents. Most parents are extremely sensitive about this. They want to fulfill this responsibility in the best way possible.
Today, it is seen that the family structure is gradually different, and parents are very lonely and uncertain about raising children.
It has been possible to be content with traditional methods of raising children in slowly changing societies, However, with the inadequacy of traditional child-rearing methods in rapidly changing societies, families have started to apply to mental health clinics for counseling, more frequently.
Now, parents apply to relevant clinics not only when there is a problem, but also to get information about how to improve their children's mental health and how to better prepare them for the future.
In order to raise healthy generations, families develop the awareness of learning from professionals how to treat their children, at what age, which characteristics are normal and healthy, and which of them are problems.
