Dr. Dana Dorfman is here today, and we’re talking all about parental anxiety. We talk on how it’s ingrained in us that education, achievement, and productivity are so important, which makes us anxious parents. We talk about how adolescents are dealing with a lot of stuff we didn’t - active shooter drills, the pandemic, constant social media&news. The pressure on our teens is real and accelerated, but there’s also some hope&inspiration there. Dr. Dorfman shares about her 8 parent anxiety reaction types and how we can use that info to do better.
