This volume offers analyses and reflections on the impact that Covid-19 has had on the lives of children and adolescents from an emotional, psychological and scholastic point of view. The authors also present viable strategies to safeguard their emotional, family and relational well-being, and to continue to guarantee them a quality education and training program.

Recent data show how isolation during the pandemic favored the onset of behavioral problems and a worsening of pre-existing conditions in 65% of children under the age of 6 and in 71% of those between the ages of 6 and 18, with increased irritability, sleep disorders and anxiety. Underestimating the impact of Covid-19 among the youngest members of the population risks transforming a health emergency, such as the one we are experiencing, into a crisis of the rights of children and young people.
