For parents waiting anxiously for GCSE results tomorrow, I was in your position last year. I found it helpful to do something fun and distracting with my son on the eve of results (anything that induces chuckles!). I found it helpful to remind him that he was loved unconditionally and that we were very much 'in it together'. Thinking of you!

A real pleasure to chat with @thinking_parent about her forthcoming book which deals with a concern of many parents of teens and a reassuring take on why we shouldn’t be too worried. @theipaper #parenting inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/…

Parents can only cope with so much. Too often they’re left feeling worried, stressed and isolated. We're supporting @UNICEF_uk's #EarlyMomentsMatter campaign calling on the new UK Gov to better support parents and deliver a Baby and Toddler Guarantee: unicef.uk/SectorEMMPetition

Record numbers of young people are struggling with their mental health. But no mention of improving mental health support in the Government’s budget announcement yesterday. It’s unacceptable. Young people make up around 18% of demand on NHS mental health services but receive just 8% of the budget. This isn’t sustainable. The current system simply cannot cope with the huge pressure to keep up with demand. We need to turn the tide on the mental health emergency. Every young person should be able to get the mental health support they need, when they need it, no matter what.
