Children's Mental Health: An Epidemic

Children’s health has been a topic of national interest and concern especially over the last year. From debating what children are being taught in school to deciding whether or not to stick them with the recently approved Pfizer dose for children, our youth are reliant upon their parents and elders to make these impactful decisions for them. While we’ve been primarily focused on their physical health during the pandemic, the mental health of America’s youth has deteriorated. CBN News Medical Reporter Lorie Johnson recently talked to a neurologist and psychiatrist about the impact the pandemic has had on children’s mental health, which has taken a frightening, downward turn over the past year. Lorie is on today’s episode to share what she learned about protecting our youth – from the vaccine to social media.
