A certain degree of anxiety is normal and expected. So how do you know when it has crossed a threshold and become a concern? Dr. Kat Boger, a Harvard-trained innovator in the field of child and adolescent mental health, gives you some signs you can look for. These practical tips can help you notice and identify some signs that indicate a problem. But, most importantly, remember to trust your instincts as a parent!
Based on years of experience and research, Dr. Boger shares some signs and indicators that help you
recognize if your child’s anxiety is becoming a concern.
As children get older, their emotions become more complex, as is the case for Riley (age 13) in Inside Out 2. As adults, we can probably all remember times when our emotions seemed to be on a roller coaster and were very difficult to understand, let alone talk about.
The school year is coming to an end, and many families are excited for fun in the sun and a break from the hustle and bustle of the school year. However, summer can be a source of stress for many parents with the change in childcare and schedules.
When a child has an anxiety and/or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a parent’s actions – even with good intentions – can accidentally make things worse. Understanding how parents take part in the anxiety cycle is important in helping kids get better.
