The Stress Wars:How Many Psychiatrists Does it Take to Raise a Child?
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, a school health service was formed to look after the health and hygiene of school children. But nothing much was said of mental health in Singapore until the late 1960s. Through fun, whimsical illustrations, this graphic novel charts the growth and development of child mental health services that began with the setting up of the Child Guidance Clinic in 1970. Singapore, at that time, was just finding its feet in creating a fairer, more inclusive social milieu that took care of the rights of children and minorities. How many psychiatrists does it take to raise a child? None – children are raised by parents. This book is also a parenting guide that gently guides families in learning to look after the mental health of every household member. From understanding difficult emotions and respectful communication skills to strategies for calming stress responses, this book invites us to create a kinder, more compassionate world for children and ultimately, raise human beings who are well-prepared for the journey of life.

Navigating the Cyberworld With Your Child
Addictive Internet use is a relatively new phenomenon of which many people are unaware, and for which treatment is often not sought.

It also explores legal problems that arise from cybercrimes, and offers intervention strategies, services and programmes available for both victim and perpetrator. Finally, it takes a look at future technology and potential research areas.
Mental Health & The Gospel Community
Mental illness is often misunderstood; Christians with mental illness even more so. Various myths and erroneous mindsets often hinder the Gospel Community from being effective in supporting those with mental illness. This book speaks to and sheds light on mental illness in three ways. Following a theological overview from Leow Wen Pin, it first presents stories from Christians who have mental illness. Their honest accounts provide a glimpse into the realities of their suffering, the words that have helped them (and the ones that haven’t), and the glimmer of hope that they find in Christ.
