The Canadian Mental Health Association estimates that anywhere from ten to twenty percent of Canada’s youth are affected by some kind of mental illness, yet only one in five of those children receive any kind of treatment.

How do we expect parents, isolated through stigma and confronted with a lack of resources, to gain understanding? Tsounis takes us into a world where she felt isolation and defeat as a parent of a teen struggling with mental health.

This is a book of interviews. A book of open, honest and frank conversation about children and mental health. It's a book of experiences shared with the thought that no parent should feel alone.
