Childhood and adolescence are critical stages of life for mental health. In our discussion, we will examine how various environmental factors, including family dynamics, socioeconomic status, cultural influences, access to resources, and community support, shape a child’s physical, cognitive, social, and emotional growth. Through a clinical lens, we will discuss the importance of considering the holistic well-being of children while recognizing that their development is influenced by a complex interplay of internal and external factors.
