Webinar, May 5th, 2021, 6:00 pm, with UMass Boston. Presenter Kathleen M Bambrick, LICSW Director of Training and Social worker, Aspire Health Alliance, will discuss parents managing their child’s stress (and perhaps parents’ too) about returning back to school.
Questions & Topics Will Include:
• Are my child’s reactions about school just normal worries or an anxiety disorder?
• My child has been so stressed with worries about the pandemic and school this last year, will my child rebound?
• My child is worried about being separated from the safety of the house, parents and family members.
• My child is worried about catching COVID at school and bringing it home to other family members with fears their family members will be very sick or die.
• My child is worried they have fallen behind academically or has worried they no longer have a peer group at school.
• I’m not sure if my child has developed an anxiety disorder and needs professional help.
• What can I say or do to ease my child’s fears?
