[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am dealing with anxiety with my high school aged child. I am unfairly resentful of my sister who has a child who just accepted college admission offer. Not her fault. And not my child’s fault that this is happening. But I always thought this child would have a million options due to incredible intelligence and athletic abilities that are now being thwarted by an evil monster known as anxiety. [/quote] Anxiety goes hand in hand with pressure to always be good at stuff (internal pressure or external pressure). Your kid needs to know it’s ok to try and fail. And it’s ok to decide that using those gifts to their fullest is not actually what makes him/her happy in life. Achievement for achievement’s sake can be pretty unfulfilling in the end.[/quote] I'm your child pp. And this reply is spot on.[/quote]
