When to Worry About Your Child's Worry

Will you pick me up on time? 
Can I sleep in your bed? 
Am I going to get sick from touching that? 
Are monsters real? 
Do I have to go to school? 

Has your child asked you one or more of these questions? These are examples of worries that are being communicated to a parent. How do we know which are normal and expected worries and which are excessive and disruptive? How should we respond to worries? Does my child need therapy? 

For answers to these questions and detailed background information about anxiety, which is a normal human emotion, and anxiety disorders in children, watch this webinar for parents. 

Wishing you all a healthy and brave start to the school year!
