Depression is serious and need to end one day. Doing the things you like can help you to take your mind off it. It can harm a person life and change everything you had. Research show how four out 100 teens are depressed each year. Many teens have loss in relationships family/friends, alcohol, drugs, problems controlling behavior in many ways, and grades become poor.

This article is about how a child is going through depression. This article is from the New York Times
Introduction:I chose this article because I wanted to know about depression in kids and how it affects a child.
The existence of depression in kids age 2 to 5 has gotten a lot of press recently, especially with a couple of articles in The New York Times debating the diagnosis and bringing to light the practice of prescribing psychiatric medications for very young children (heavy duty antipsychotic ones in toddlers, no less).
In this week’s Science of Kids article, I take on the issue of preschool depression: what it means, whether it’s a real phenomenon (as in, how do you separate the natural ups and downs of a kid’s development from an actual problem needing treatment), and what a therapist and parent’s role is in treating it.
How many preschoolers are depressed, according to researchers?

Can preschoolers really be clinically depressed?
In this week’s Science of Kids article, I take on the issue of preschool depression: what it means, whether it’s a real phenomenon (as in, how do you separate the natural ups and downs of a kid’s development from an actual problem needing treatment), and what a therapist and parent’s role is in treating it.
How many preschoolers are depressed, according to researchers?
The statistic quoted in The New York Times is 1 to 3 percent (or 86,000 out of 6 million preschoolers in the U.S.) And, as I argue in the column, the question of whether it’s “real” and worth diagnosing has to do with two questions: does it go away on its own, or is it correlated with later childhood and adult depression (short answer, yes); and whether or not you can do anything about it (short answer, yes).
