Children have enough on their plate without having to worry about the imminent demise of the world, according to child psychologist Clare Rowe. Prime Minister Scott Morrison has warned against causing children needless anxiety about the issue of climate change. The comments come as Swedish teenage activist Greta Thunberg has warned her generation will face "catastrophic" consequences unless radical action is taken to combat climate change.

She said parents should provide perspective and discuss climate change around the dinner table in order to allay their child's concerns. Image: News Corp Read More Our Apps
