978-1-4338-3866-8 From the Note to Parents: If you are the parent
or caregiver of an anxious child, you know what it feels like to be
held hostage. So does your child. Children who worry too
much are held captive by their fears. They go to great lengths to
avoid frightening situations, and ask the same anxiety-based
questions over and over again. Yet the answers give them virtually
no relief. Parents and caregivers find themselves spending huge
amounts of time reassuring, coaxing, accommodating, and doing
whatever else they can think of to minimize their child’s
distress. But it doesn’t work. The anxiety remains in control. As
you have undoubtedly discovered, simply telling an anxious child to
stop worrying doesn’t help at all. Nor does applying adult logic,
or allowing your child to avoid feared situations, or offering
reassurance every time the fears are expressed. This book is part
of the Magination Press What-to-Do Guides for Kids® series and
includes an “Introduction to Parents and
Caregivers.” What-to-Guides for Kids® are interactive
self-help books designed to guide 6–12 year olds and their
parents through the cognitive-behavioral techniques most often used
in the treatment of various psychological concerns. Engaging,
encouraging, and easy to follow, these books educate, motivate, and
empower children to work towards change.
