Is My Child Anxious or Just Behaving Badly?

Jul 15, 2022

This is a question I get asked so often by parents! It can be hard to tell whether your child is struggling with a big feeling - particularly anxiety - or if their challenging behaviour is simply down to naughtiness.
 
In this week's video I explore this subject in detail, and share:
 
βœ… Why children sometimes express their feelings through their behaviour
 
βœ… Why it's easy for the adults around your child to think they are just being naughty or badly behaved
 
βœ…When their behaviour IS being caused by a big feeling like anxiety
 
βœ…How to tell the difference
 
βœ… What to do to help your child recognise and learn to release it safely
 
I hope you find it helpful.
 
Warmest wishes
