PSP 134: Helping Kids Who Have a Fear of Bad Guys

AT Parenting Survival Podcast: Parenting | Child Anxiety | Motherhood | Kids & Family - Un pódcast de Natasha Daniels: Child Therapist, Child Anxiety and Child OCD Expert - Lunes

Hands down the number one fear I deal with as a child therapist is the fear of bad guys. It isn’t surprising. I remember being a child myself, sitting in my bed, blanket up to my neck, wondering not if, but when would I be attacked. The fear is often dealt with platitudes like: I’m right here Who is going to hurt you Nothing has ever happened to you Why do you worry so much In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I explore why those platitudes aren’t helpful and what to do and say instead.
