"Everyone will at some point experience challenging situations where coping skills are necessary for reducing the stress or anxiety and enacting helpful solutions. Children may react to stress or anxiety in different ways than adults. For example, an adult might be able to handle a betrayal of a friend quite differently than a pre-teen. Children urgently need to learn healthy coping skills. The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry states that suicide is currently the second leading cause of death for children and young adults, ages 15-24 (AACAP, 2018). Suicide frequently results from an inability to cope or manage emotions. Other dangerous behaviors may result from the inability to cope such as, depression, risk- taking, sexual promiscuity, drug/alcohol abuse, or non-suicidal self-injury. When children and teens learn how to effectively cope with their strong emotions, it can more likely lead to a healthy adulthood. GOALS FOR THIS BOOK ARE: to help children learn to recognize the differences between healthy and unhealthy ways of coping to increase childrens ability to effectively use healthy coping skills in situations they may face"--
