Today on our show we'll be talking to psychotherapist Lynn Lyons about anxiety in kids,

in parents everywhere.

Plus as always we'll have questions from listeners, we'll have triumphs and fails, we'll make recommendations and on slate plus.

Slates Greg Lavely has an outstanding instance of parental failure and child guilt tripping.

First up, we got a lot of response to last week's episode, especially the segment on
