So, you know, if you think of this little externalized worry bug sort of thing, and it's it's constantly saying, Are you sure?
Are you sure?
And often when kids are seeking reassurance, they're wanting their parents to promise a bad thing's not gonna happen.
You're not gonna get sick, I'm not gonna forget.
forget to pick you up, you're not gonna mess up on what you're doing.
You know, kids are wanting certainty.
And we can't have certainty.
And one of the things that is important for kids to learn is that the idea that we have to have certainty is kind of a myth.
That's not the way the world works.
And we need to go based on what's most likely.
We we we do all kinds of things based on most what's most likely.
And that's fine.
It's only worry that's telling us we have to be sure.
Yeah, so parents are really a really important part of the work that I do.
I do a lot of parent training, parent education, parent guidance.
Often anxious children have anxious parents, not only the kind of worry that you talk about about, you know, worry about a neuro uh atypical child, but also just parents have trouble with anxiety more broadly.
And children and parents kind of trigger one another.
So a child's anxiety sets off a parent's anxiety because anxiety is a really uncomfortable feeling.
So often parents are learning the skill set along with their child.
And a part of it is learning how to tolerate the discomfort rather than immediately giving into it.
