Dr. Charlotte Reznick helps children heal internal conflicts, reduce stress, and guides them to inner peace. She can also help them to better understand their feelings when tragedy strikes. Dr. Reznick shares her strategies with parents so they too can help children cope with difficult situations.
2. Good Fun
Let's have some Good Fun! And while we're at it, let's help our young children engage in their communities to do some good, help others and become kind and responsible citizens along the way. Tune in for all the incredible ideas (and rewards) that come from providing services to others.
3. UNICEF
UNICEF is the driving force that helps build a world where the rights of every child are realized. UNICEF remains dedicated to providing life-saving assistance to children affected by disasters, and to protecting their rights in any circumstances, no matter how difficult.
4. Help Children During Crisis
The emotional effects of a crisis or disaster, such as earthquakes, riots, and terrorist activities, on children can be tremendous. One of the difficulties experienced by parents is that they have not had adequate time to deal with their own reactions when they are called upon to deal with the impact of the disaster or crisis on their child.
5. Cope with Catastrophe
Emotional reactions vary in nature and severity from child to child. Their responses to a disaster are determined by age, previous experiences, temperament and personality, and the immediacy of the disaster to their own lives.
