129. How do we help kids manage back-to-school worries? Artwork

Parents of the Year

We were never given a manual on how to parent. It is easy to get overwhelmed to know the right thing to do. There is so much contradictory information out there and everyone has their own advice. Parenting is a rewarding but messy, confusing, infuriating, guilt-inducing, and overwhelming journey. While it's easy to get lost, Andrew Stewart, a real dad, and Dr. Caroline Buzanko, a real mom, child psychologist, and parenting expert (who also happens to be married to Andrew) will help you get back on track. In each episode, Andrew and Caroline have open and honest chats about everything parenting. Join them in honesty, laughter, and tears (Caroline is a bit of a cry baby) as they help you navigate this journey of parenting. And, every so often, you may get some gems of expert advice. Our goal is to make your parenting journey less stressful, more forgiving, and more awesome. Please join us every Wednesday for new episodes of Parenting of the Year.

129. How do we help kids manage back-to-school worries?

August 21, 2024 • Caroline & Andrew • Season 3 • Episode 129

This week on Parents on the Year, we recast another of Carline’s important Overpowering Emotions episodes focusing on managing back-to-school worries and equipping children for a smooth and confident transition.

As the new school year approaches, it's natural for children to experience a mix of excitement and apprehension. Parents often face challenges in helping their kids navigate this time of change, which is why we're here to share practical strategies to overcome these challenges and empower children for success.

Join Caroline as she explores effective ways to address the worries that creep in while nurturing a supportive environment that encourages open communication and emotional well-being. We'll build a toolkit of resilience for our children, so they embrace the new school year with excitement and enthusiasm.

Ensure all children embark on this back-to-school journey with a strong foundation of support, love, and readiness to thrive.
