Mama Vibes Podcast

As students return to school and navigate Covid 19, the percentage of children experiencing anxiety has increased dramatically!

Many well-meaning parents try to protect anxious kids from their fears, but overprotecting can actually make anxiety worse. 

Here are pointers for helping kids cope with anxiety without reinforcing it.

1. Don't try to eliminate anxiety; do try to help a child manage it.
2. Don't avoid things just because they make a child anxious.
3.  Express positive—but realistic—expectations.
4. Respect her feelings.
5. Don't ask leading questions.
6. Don't reinforce the child's fears.
7. Be encouraging.
8. Try to keep the anticipatory period short.
9. Think things through with the child.
10. Try to model healthy ways of handling anxiety.
