[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a kid like this and I agree with getting a therapist but meanwhile there are some good books. I don’t consider myself particularly anxious but I found Anxious Kids Anxious Parents by Wilson and Lyons to be very helpful. I think you are right to address this head on. It is very frustrating for parents to deal with kids like this but, as you know, your kid doesn’t need your frustration she needs your help. [/quote] OP here - yes I feel like a horrible parent today since I blew up at her about her whining and tantrums that were happening all weekend. I feel like I am letting her down by getting upset with her but I don't know how to deal with her anxiety. I am always on edge knowing that the slightest thing will set her off. I try and set her up for success - make sure she isn't super hungry or super tired but that doesn't even work. [/quote]
