Back-to-school
Worries
If your is kid experiencing back-to-school anxiety, follow these simple steps to make the transition easier and better understand their concerns.
The basics
Ask and listen
Make sure the simple things are being taken care of, such as getting enough sleep, eating regular meals and getting outdoors for a bit of sunshine. When your children’s wellness is on track, tackling the stresses of school will be easier.
Ask your child what they are worried about and what they expect to happen. You can make this casual (i.e. while driving in the car) or sitting down and giving them your undivided attention. It’s all about creating a safe space.
