Summary

Children can be incredibly resilient during difficult times. However, during the course of the pandemic, their social and emotional well-being and development have undergone exceptional challenges. Kids and parents alike have dealt with loss of structure, feelings of isolation, and worries about the unknown; and parents have had the added tasks of monitoring their children's cognitive and behavioral responses while also trying to accommodate their own. This Raising Curious Learners episode, therapist and Britannica for Parents expert Ellen Bee converses with Ann and Elizabeth about her telehealth experiences and offers hopeful guidance on mindfulness and coping strategies based on her specialized knowledge of anxiety and mood disorders.
