The PedsDocTalk Podcast: Child Health, Development & Parenting—From a Pediatrician Mom

How parental anxiety impacts childhood anxiety


Listen Later

Do we as adults cause our child to be anxious and does their anxiety cause us to be anxious? On this episode, I welcome Dr. Helen Egger, a child Psychiatrist to discuss the clyclical effect of anxiety in families. We discuss:

  • If anxiety in a home can be cyclical in nature?
  • How to address a child’s worries and anxieties while simultaneously managing our own worries/fears
  • How complete avoidance of fears can negatively impact our children
  • When a parent should be concerned about their own anxiety
