5% or l in 20. That' s at least one depressed child in every classroom.

at risk, such as those who are ill or who come from a broken family. But there are also many simpler worries ,such as exam fears.

Medicine may be used, although less often than they are in grown-ups. But it ' s very important that efforts are also made to help children under stand why they became depressed, how they can deal with the problems in their life, and how they can form. a more positive(正面的) opinion of their world. Support within the family can help prob-lem solving(解决) .
