Our children's quiet plea for understanding in a pressured world

In a world where children's mental well-being is increasingly challenged by distress and anxiety, a number of studies have highlighted the positive effects of spirituality on their mental health and the importance of its recognition and support. For over 38 years, Dr. Valerie Duffy-Cross has been listening to and working with teenagers. In her new book, What Our Children Do Not Tell Us, she presents a unique understanding of children's spirituality based on several years of frank and surprising conversations with young people across England. She reveals that despite the lack of silence in their lives, young people are already finding their own spiritual spaces - unique moments of altered awareness that help them cope. This book offers practical insights for parents, teachers, and caregivers, providing a roadmap to truly understand and nurture a child's inner world, helping them navigate a pressured existence with grace and resilience.
