[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]stranger anxiety is very common in infants, so I don't think this is something to worry about for the longterm some kids may be naturally "shy" however I think over-anxious parents often contribute to a child's fears[/quote] I tend to agree with this because I've seen it with my very shy and socially constrained brother. He imparted his fears and anxieties about social situations and in public places on his first born son and his son is the exact same way. It broke my heart when he was an adolescent because my brother would magnify his fears in front of my nephew who scarily latched onto them and made them his own fears. It was very sad to see the road this was all heading on. It really also hit home to me that modeling behavior can really impact a child. [/quote]
