Living with a child who experiences a significant mental-health issue, such as bipolar, can be a test of your love, strength, and endurance. As your child's parent, you know you'll love him no matter what and would do anything for him if it would help. But what about the impact of your child's bipolar symptoms on the rest of the family? It may be challenging to discover your family's resources and to equip everyone with the skills to foster balance and keep the peace.
