- Hello kids, how was school today?
- Leave me alone mom!
- I had a great day at school today mom!
- School was great mom. Thanks for asking!
- Hey girls, do you know what' going on with your brother?
- No mom, but he has not been acting like himself.
- I don't know mom but lately he has been acting strange and it makes me sad.
- I have found this article online from the World Health Organization that provides tips for parents on how they can help their children especially those of color to be open in talking about their mental health issues. Maybe this article can help me understand my son and have him open up to me!

- MOM: Hey son, please come downstairs. I would like to talk with you for a minute!
- No one understands what I am going through, why won't they just leave me alone!
- Son, I am here to support you with anything you need. I completely understand if you are going through something and don't want to talk to me about it but know that I am always here whenever you want to talk.
- Sorry mom, for how I spoke to you earlier . Yes I am having problems with my mental health and I am so glad you have brought this conversation up because I have been feeling depressed and alone.
- Parents please do your best to talk with your children and try to be there for them in every way possible. Us teens don't like talking about our problems with others but your support makes us feel more confident in speaking to you about our mental health.
