Summary

We’re back for part two with the Yale Child Study Center's Anxiety and Mood Disorders Program, Dr. Eli Lebowitz. Today we dive deep into the fine line between supporting our kids and over-accommodating their anxiety. We go through scenarios like kids sleeping in their own beds, to building confidence in social situations like ordering at a restaurant. We also dive into family systems, and how to manage anxiety within them.

0:00.0	The following podcast is a dear media production.
0:04.2	We talk a lot about different ways to parent on this podcast, of course.
0:08.4	And you know that one of the topics that comes up is teens and their relationship to social media.
0:15.3	And I want to introduce Instagram teen accounts to you because it's game-changing. Listen, I know that
0:24.4	it's exhausting to try to monitor all this, but I think Instagram's taken a really great step

1:29.5	you to take notice of what is going on in your teenagers' social media accounts and what protections
1:38.2	they have and note that Instagram is automatically doing it. So if they're on Instagram,
1:43.9	this is the requirement,
