7. Do you have resources available for your children?
8. Have you ever journaled? Think of ways to encourage your child/ren to write out their feelings.
9. Have you ever scrapbooked? Do you think your kids would enjoy it?

11. Do your children have a pet? If not, is this a possibility?
12. Has your child shown interest in a hobby? How could you encourage a hobby?
13. Who could you go to as an adviser to help with difficult situations?
