Book excerpt: The mental health of children and young people is in the spotlight as prevalence rates increase across all age ranges and ready access to specialist mental health services and preventative services proves difficult or non-existent. Children and young people are more stressed at school and, when they leave, the transition to adulthood can be more difficult and extend beyond late teens and early twenties. While good practice exists, the complications of modern-day living raise new challenges for the mental well-being of our young people from a very early age onwards.
