Perhaps the kids are watching too much TV or playing too many sedentary games and need to move, excercise, run, play and all that. Depression is more often linked to diet and physical health than to emotions, it's all interlinked together. Try and experiment and limit the number of hours your kids are sitting around and the amount of snacky foods they are eating, and exchange for outdoor play with healthy snacks, there may be a change in their emotional behaviour.
