Summary

Anxious kids crumble under pressure for a variety of reasons. They might worry about deadlines and school work. They might worry about the social pressures of being called on or being watched. They might fear being less than perfect or being worse than others. They might have difficulties making decisions, worried about picking the wrong choice.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I talk about why kids crumble under pressure and how to help them.
