Childhood is supposed to be a time of growing and developing. It is supposed to be a time of fun and innocence, not dealing with adult issues.

Depression is an adult issue that some children are dealing with that is not discussed a lot.Depression haunts a lot of children, sometimes starting as young as six years old but unfortunately it is not diagnosed until they are teenagers.

According to an annual survey conducted in 2009 by Childwise research agency, the overall time spent in front of screens by 5-16 year-olds in Britain was nearly six hours a day.

The number of children reading for pleasure in their own time has fallen from 80% in 2008 to 75% in 2009.
