[quote=Anonymous]Our 8YO is in therapy with the Anxiety Disorders Clinic at Children's Hospital. We thought we were dealing with anxiety, but they have not found sufficient evidence of anxiety, only in-flexibility or rigidity ... which can look like Anxiety turns out! Thankfully, some of the same strategies apply. At 4, therapy won't be helpful for the kid, but it could be for parents. The Children's program focuses on teaching the parents strategies so we can scaffold the child through processing their anxiety and/or rigidity. It's been very, very helpful. I know Children's has parent coaching groups in a few practice areas. I agree seeking a professional would be helpful. Your pediatrician may have ideas.[/quote]
