Helping Family Members Helping Kids

Think about the tough job family members have when their kids need extra support. Kids with trouble growing might need something called growth hormones to help them. They may physically grow properly. But these health struggles don't just affect kids. Parents and caregivers are often dealing with big feelings like stress.

Imagine having to make sure a kid takes medicine, but knowing they may feel cranky, or not feel passionate to do so. The tension can show up in that kid's resistance from army obsessed movies, books, and comics and thus, in general disliking it all. So, how do family members cope with all these challenges. The kind of support caregivers need isn't always clear. Some researchers think they have found a promising solution involving mobile apps. They are hoping newer technology could be a big help. The key is that these apps aim to support the emotional needs and anything else related to it. It's a digital approach that isn't something you can just do to someone.
