How to Build Your Child’s Resilience as School Goes Back | Ask Charlotte

School goes back this week across New Zealand. And for many parents, that brings a quiet knot in the stomach. Will they cope better this year? Will friendships be easier? Will last year’s struggles follow them back into the classroom? In this Ask Charlotte episode, I respond to a parent asking how to set their child up for a resilient start to the school year and unpack what resilience actually looks like for children. Not toughening up. Not pushing through. Not coping quietly. Real resilience is built when children: Can name their feelings Know what behaviour is not okay Feel safe to talk about their day Learn how to ask for help early Understand which problems are adult problems, not theirs to solve alone In this episode, we cover: How to support your child’s mental health as school starts back Why emotional literacy matters more than confidence How bullying can come from friends and why that matters How to help your child talk without forcing conversations Teaching help-seeking as a life skill Small parenting shifts that make a big difference across the year If your child struggled last year, is feeling anxious about going back to school, or you want to set this year up differently, this episode will give you clear, practical ways to support them. This is not about getting it perfect. It is about helping your child feel safe, supported, and not alone when school life gets hard.
