Skills adults can teach children to help them cope with COVID-19 anxiety

In the Conversation, a University of Southern California psychiatry professor explains how to support children through pandemic-related anxiety. The author suggests adults convey a healthy respect for the danger that COVID-19 poses, in the same way that crossing the street can be dangerous, but precautions can be taken to reduce risk. These precautions, such as wearing a mask and washing hands, can also be explained as a way to display respect for others. Children can learn more about how they are part of a society where their actions impact others. #covid-19
