Psychology Insight 

 

Sadness is not depression: While sadness is an emotional reaction to situations and is completely normal for everyone to feel, depression is a persistent and pervasive feeling of sadness remaining to manifest for an extended time. Help your child understand the difference between the two and seek professional help if the child feels depressed.
