Raising Resilient Children: What to Do When the World Feels Too Heavy for Them

Short Description

You notice it before you can name it — the stomachaches before school, the sudden clinginess, the meltdown that came from nowhere. Your child is trying to tell you something, and you're terrified of missing it. This SECTION 8 guide helps you hear it. Backed by real research (including a 50,000+ child study on screen time and anxiety), it gives you the words, the signals, and the daily habits to help your child feel safe, seen, and strong — at every age, from toddlers to teens. Includes a fillable Companion Workbook so you're not just reading, you're building something that lasts.
