Anti-Fragile Kids: Embracing the 4 D's for Resilience with Liz Faria

The transition to kindergarten brings big changes, including less parental visibility and a drastic shift from play-based to academic learning. Licensed clinical social worker Liz Faria discusses how parents can manage their own anxiety and help children build resilience. Learn about "anti-fragile" parenting, the crucial role of the "Four D's" (Discomfort, Distress, Disappointment, and mild Danger), and why avoiding accommodations is essential for fostering a competent, sturdy child. Meet Our Guest: Liz Faria is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) whose focus is working with the parents of anxious children.
