How can I help my young person to develop positive social connections?

Recognising the value and opportunities in all sources of connections (not just school friends).
Support interests and encourage extracurricular activities: Promote participation in clubs and activities to facilitate connections with others who share similar passions. Go along with them, get to know their friends too.
Model positive social interactions: Demonstrate healthy relationships within the family and with friends.
Provide opportunities for socialising: Host gatherings at home to create a comfortable space for socialising. Arrange social outings or group activities.
Provide emotional support: Be a supportive listener, offering comfort during friendship challenges. Talk to them regularly about their friendships so that you know what is happening and can offer support along the way.
Monitor digital interactions: Guide them on responsible social media use as virtual connections can also play a role in forming and maintaining friendships.
Seek professional help if needed: If your teen is struggling significantly with forming friendships or social interactions, consider seeking the guidance of a school counsellor or mental health professional.

Good mental health is when we can cope with the stressors of our daily lives, participate in loving relationships, contribute to our community, and work towards our goals. Everyone has mental health. And we can all benefit from looking after our own mental health and the mental health of our communities.
