How best to respond when your child feels anxious or worried? Should you crack a joke to distract them? Reassure and say there’s nothing to worry about? Protect them from the source of their distress by avoiding it? Intuition often leads us in those directions, but the best strategies may be ones that help our children recognize the source of their anxiety in order to overcome it. Clinical psychologist Dr. Sara Colalillo shows how caregivers can help kids cope with their anxiety by helping them face their fears.
