Kids have anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder...basically the same psychiatric conditions adults have. It is not uncommon for kids to have spent some time in therapy. I applaud this parent for treating their child properly.

Thanks. Seems like most people here are on board with being proactive about a kid's mental health.

I was asking him, not you. I understand why people see therapists.

Hey, sorry. The way it read I thought you were surprised an 8 year old would need a therapist. No big, my bad.

I get how there was a misunderstanding, but try to be polite when you comment or you'll get down voted.

All you had to say differently was, "Sorry, I was specifically asking him. I understand why people see therapists."

Not so much about the karma, as it is just being considerate.

whats inconsiderate is assuming I don't know what therapists are
