Hand in Hand Parenting: The Podcast
Society & Culture
Changes in routine or surroundings often trigger separation anxiety, and as parents, we often see it play out at daycare or school drop-off. And it's really no secret why. We rush to get out on time, we have our never-ending running to-do list chattering, and on top of that we see other children run off happily to meet friends while our own tearful child clings to our legs crying, and all in front of the teacher.
No wonder Elle says that even the words "separation anxiety" have her breaking out in a cold sweat.
It's also the reason we wanted to make Separation Anxiety our focus on the podcast this week. Abigail and Elle explore how to use Hand in Hand's Parenting tools to ease separation stress. And we talk about two tools that have had helped bring profound changes for kids with fears about separation.
