What would be the best alternative for child counselling? Do you think there are any? Can a child grow up well without counselling after a divorce? Why do some children need counselling? I heard that there are some children who are forced to go to psychologists, is that considered to be a normal thing?

Child couselling depends on the child and how much he can cope with new situations, and handle shocks like Divorce.

I dont find that normal at all to force a child to go to the psy. Do you have any example when the child was forced, under which circumstances actually? Well, I know you only heard about those, but if you ever know a particular situation, maybe it would be good to share, so we could "assess" whether this is normal or not.

I am a very good example My parents forced wme to go to the psy when i was just a little girl. I took my revenge on them, i date girls and this piss them off. But i have been trapped in my own net, because i started to appreciate girls as well as boys at the same time

Why did they do that Maeva? What were their reasons to bring you there by force?

The best alternative according to me would be much love, nothing more. Maeva, i hope you overcame all this and that you feel less pain now. Cheer up girl, you need to stand on your feet.

The best alternative for child counselling is by no doubt much love. You should cuddle your children the more you can. Make him feel that he is the most important thing in your whole life and that you would never let him down. And NEVER LET HIM DOWN

child counseling is not a normal thing. yes in some cases it is necessary but in others it is not. it depends on how well you prepare the child for it and tell him what is actually happening and what will happen. if you prepare him or her well there is no need for counselling but if you cannot do it then you must take the child for counselling

For example? Everything can be 'necessary in some cases'

Yes, indeed, but here the question is 'what is the best alternative'
