35. 3 Signs Your Child is Struggling with Anxiety About School - Back to School Series Part 2
Is your child suddenly asking to stay home from school, struggling at bedtime, or complaining of frequent stomachaches or headaches? These behaviors may be signs of school anxiety . In Part 2 of the Mom’s Way to Wellness Back to School Series, Aida Maravillas, LCSW, shares 3 signs that your child may be struggling with anxiety about school and how anxiety can show up through behavior and physical symptoms. You’ll learn how to recognize patterns, identify potential triggers such as academic pressure, bullying, or peer conflict, and support your child in developing greater emotional awareness and healthy coping skills. Sometimes the behavior is communicating something our children don’t yet have the words to say. Learning to look beneath the behavior can help us respond with greater understanding—and become better advocates for our kids.
