What the Expert Says:

Children can get depressed just like adults, and they need help as soon as possible to help them deal with their feelings and stresses of daily living. Your grandson should see a pediatric therapist as soon as possible. His mom can get a recommendation for a pediatric therapist in the community from her son's regular health care provider.

Bets regards.
