[quote=Anonymous]Forgive this basic question. My son (almost 10) has anxiety. In the classroom it exhibits itself as frustration over new material. The teachers have told us time and time again that he can do the material, he just gets thrown for a loop very easily when things are new, or don't go his way exactly. On the sports field (in his case baseball) he does super well in practice but then strikes out very frequently in games because he is so worried that he won't get a hit. (I would take him out of baseball but he despite his struggles he loves it). We have never had him formally evaluated by a developmental pediatrician (he has had some CBT by a therapist and she didn't notice any red flags). That said, I know very little about this. Is anxiety generally a symptom of other things in kids or a primary condition in and of itself? Thank you for any thoughts on this. [/quote]
