Resources for Managing Back to School Anxiety
CPLA wants to support you, as parents & caregivers, to support your children as the new school year begins. Check out these resources from ChildMind Institute for a list of ways you can help your child (and yourself) cope with anxiety amidst returning to school during the ongoing pandemic.
"Children heading back to the classroom this fall — as many of their parents head back to the office — will face unusual challenges. One of them is anxiety about being separated from their families after months of togetherness. For some kids it will trigger separation anxiety. And some may be worried about the continuing risks of the coronavirus pandemic, as masking and distancing requirements are relaxed but not everyone is protected.
In some cases kids may resist going back to school because the quarantine was actually a lot easier for them than going to school — kids with a lot of social anxiety, or who were bullied, or kids with learning disorders who had an easier time at home where they could do things at their own pace."
Also, check out this webinar on Back to school anxiety by CPLA colleague Lisa Lewis, LMFT to learn how you as a parent/caregiver can navigate your own anxiety as well as your child’s anxiety as COVID-19 continues to be a concern as students return to in-person.
