Many of our children are anxious. Some express their worries through upset and fear, whilst others show it through anger and frustration. Parents often don't know what they can do to help.
Our children have lived through a tumultuous time. They have lived through school closures, and social distancing. Fear of illness and worries about their relatives. They have lived through a time of profound uncertainty and unpredictability for adults and children.
This time has taken its toll on everyone, but for children, it is particularly significant. Many of them cannot clearly remember a time before the pandemic.
