Back to School Anxiety

It’s officially here.  Today marked the first day of school for most kids across the country, and with that comes a lot of excitement, fears and sometimes anxiety.

I was recently interviewed by CityTV’s Cynthia Mulligan about back to school anxiety, and how parents can help their kids through this transition.

To read my tips, check out Cynthia’s blog.

"Connected Parenting advises us not just how to parent, but—far more important—who to be as parents. The therapeutic methods suggested by Jennifer Kolari are based not on simple-minded behavioural solutions, but on building warm, nurturing relationships with our children, with insight and compassion not only for their little flaws, but also for our own larger ones."

"A must read for parents, educators, and any other adults who want to connect in a deeply caring and positive way with the children in their lives."
