Having an anxious child can really get to parents. Seeing our children struggling about something triggers different personal reactions for each of us. As parents, we often hold it together despite feeling overwhelmed, sad, etc. inside. It is, after all, really hard to bare our true feelings to others. But through sharing these feelings, we can be stronger and support each other with our children.

I recently held a survey online on how parents feel about their anxious child and in this episode, I'll be sharing the results with you. Here's an overview of what was asked in the survey and some tips, ideas and strategies on helping your children:

•Feelings of parents when they think about their anxious child.
•The wishes of parents for their families and for themselves.
•Parents' activities for self-care.
•Common feelings of parents from the results of the survey.
•Tips, ideas and strategies for activities, homework time, transitions from screen time, etc.
