[quote=Anonymous]Are you sure your kids aren’t depressed or have social anxiety? Are you the kind of family who is more reserved and quiet or do you talk openly about feelings? Therapy should be no different than any other doctor appointment but people are still scared to ‘go there’. There are also social skills classes. This is something you need to address before college. It can be dangerous to isolate (drugs, online strangers, suicide). Seriously, schedule a mental health check in with a therapist. Kids this age can benefit greatly. College is a tough transition so the sooner you help your teens develop social skills and a healthy way to communicate, the better.[/quote]
