Development Stages

Is that ‘normal’? Should I be worried about this? Are questions most parents have asked themselves about their child’s behaviour at some point.

The World Health Organisation developed an outline of what they consider to be typical psychosexual development at each stage of childhood and many parents have told us they’ve found it a useful guide to what’s ‘normal’ and what support their child might need from them.
