As the mother of a young adult son and two teenage daughters, I feel I have learned a lot about parenting in the last 22 years. If you were to ask me to identify one of my biggest parenting challenges, I would say combating childhood anxiety. Anxiety is a real issue from which we cannot shy away. Between social media and recent breaking headlines, anxiety is all around us.

Thank you for your good suggestions, Mindy. As a parent and now a grandparent, I have seen many changes in culture during the past 50 years. But anxiety-causing factors have always been present even though they may come in different forms. During this time, the child's home as a peaceful and constant haven remains an important factor--a place where children will know they are safe and loved.
