CONNIE ALBERS
About this episode

Do your children get stressed out when faced with final exams, group projects, graduation requirements, and other end-of-year assignments are due? The truth is, most kids do. That's common. But we can help our kids reduce their school year stress so they can enjoy this season of life and not be filled with anxiety. 

In this episode, you can apply to reduce your child's school-year stress by learning how to manage the extra load. 

Last week, I focused on preparing for the time When Children Move Out. Though we are never fully prepared for that day, there are ways you can take a bittersweet moment and turn a bittersweet moment into a joyful experience for all.
