Written by Nicole Sheldon, R. Psych. We all want our children to be happy, healthy, and to have friends. We send our children off to school with the hope they will create meaningful connections, and are heartbroken when this doesn’t happen. While it’s natural for some children to take time to warm up to new social environments, persistent difficulties in making friends or feeling accepted can impact self-esteem and overall wellbeing.

Written by Nicole Sheldon and Devanee Clark It seems that once you become the parent of a school-aged child, you mark the passage of time less by the beginning of the calendar year and more by the first day of school. For each of us this brings a variety of feelings – excitement, fear, nervousness, apprehension, anticipation, relief. It’s a time of transition –  getting back into or starting new routines, meeting new teachers, saying goodbye to old friends and looking forward to new ones.
