Health Tip: Is Your Child Stressed?
By LadyLively on March 4, 2016
Children and teens aren’t immune to stress. But can parents recognize the warning signs?
The American Psychological Association mentions these potential symptoms:
- Acting moody or withdrawn.
- Having sleep or appetite changes.
- Clinging to parents.
- Avoiding activities that used to excite the child.
- Complaining frequently of headache or stomachache without an apparent cause.
- Behaving unusually with friends or teachers.
- Using words such as annoyed, confused, angry or worried, or using phrases such as “I’m stupid” or “No one likes me.”
