Children are also vulnerable to mental stress

[Brett Fuller]

Children are the most fascinating creatures, they bring loads of
happiness into the lives of their parents, and they complete the
family. They are the liveliest factor that keeps the household alive
and kicking. A happy environment adds to their healthy growth and in
turn it also adds to the relaxed and happy atmosphere at home. But
sometimes it may happen that the parents or social causes affect them
adversely. Tensions between parents themselves or at their workplace
can be brought home to the kids and the peace is stirred. The
environment at home gets disturbed and the growth of the kids also
gets affected. It is not only these external factors but also the
factors related to the kids affect them. These factors are social
acceptance, performance pressure or unhealthy competition etc. In
short the kids are very much vulnerable to such pressures. Children
may also develop eating disorders as a way of dealing with the many
emotions that they feel, especially if they are raised in a home that
does not allow feelings to be expressed.
