My DS13 has always struggled a bit with resilience - melting down when the slightest thing goes wrong for him.
He'd improved a lot over the last year, maturing, enjoying secondary school, friends and hobbies, the meltdowns had become almost non-existent.
Now with lockdown he's regressed. The slightest thing is setting him off. He melts down at such small things, and remains angry for hours or a whole day.
He's then too angry to do any school work and it affects the rest of the family (he shouts at us all).
I'm more concerned about his mental health than the school work but don't really know where to start to help him.
Anyone got any ideas on how to improve resilience and help teens to cope with these strange times?
