How to Spot and Stop Anxiety in Children

How to spot and stop anxiety in children is what Dr. Danny Huerta, Dr. John Trent and counselor and clinical director at Focus on the Family Tim Sanford tackle in this video.

Dr. Trent explains how having a mother with a calming presence who stayed engaged with her children helped keep him and his brothers from being anxious or feeling broken, even after their father left.

The three give concrete examples of what makes children anxious and how parents can help them keep anxious thoughts away.
