I would like to raise the awareness of mental health in young teenagers

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

I am a mother of 2 children aged 12 and 14. Both children have adhd and high functioning autism. As a professional in the field I have seen so much mental health difficulties in young teens and adults and there is a lack of awareness and support out there for them and their parents. This must stop!

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We understand that you'd like to improve awareness of mental health difficulties in young teenagers, but we're not sure how you'd like the Government to do this. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
