Child of Our Time - Series 8 - The Age of Stress

Logo for Child of Our Time - Series 8 - The Age of Stress

Professor Robert Winston presents a documentary series following the lives of 25 British children until the age of 20. Children face more stress than ever before. Seven-year-olds sit exams, bullying is on the increase, and some children experience the devastating effects of terminal illness in the family.
