School Phobia

By Eileen Bailey, Health Guide Monday, April 21, 2008

 

Remember, as the parent, you know your child best. You can probably tell if complaints and symptoms are a result of emotions or if your child is sick. If you feel that your child has a physical problem, speak with your doctor.

 

Watch your child, without making a fuss, in other activities to look for signs of excessive worry, anxiety, fears or depression. Children can suffer from anxiety and there are behavioral treatments available to help your child overcome their fears.

 

Your physician is available to help should you be concerned about your child's emotional or physical health.
