[quote=Anonymous]OP I'm someone that may have said oh don't make her go, but I read this article recently and the part on the SPACE intervention with kids with anxiety has really stuck with me. I'm not saying your daughter has anxiety, but this idea that accommodating our kids fears doesn't usually help them all this much has stuck with me so I thought it might help you, and given it I think I would do a LOT of supporting, but help her prep to stick with it. This is an opportunity as a parent to help her through a hard thing for her. We want to use those opportunities while they are still in our house so that when they leave and are on their own, they have the tools to handle it. To cope. Of course we want to be responsive to them but there is a balance. The article is long - you can honestly do control find for "SPACE" and you'll see the intervention I'm talking about. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2020/05/childhood-in-an-anxious-age/609079/[/quote]
