Childhood should be a time free from worry and anxiety. Sometimes, however, stress from a disability, school, family situations, or growing up can present problems for children. Often times, children are forced to grow up too fast.

Adolescence can be an overwhelming time – with strong emotions, new experiences, and experimentation with new behaviors and attitudes. Most teenagers survive this transition to adulthood. For some, though, it is too much to bear.
