The Impact of Anxious and Non-Anxious Parents on the Mental Health of Children
Keywords:
Anxiety, Parents, Children, Puberty, InfluenceAbstract
Anxiety disorders are characterized by excessive and persistent anxiety or fear and are associated with a range of behavioral disturbances. Most parents experience anxiety from time to time, but for some people, parenting anxiety can affect the quality of their life or their child’s life. The regulation of emotions and behavior is crucial to the healthy early development of children, where they interact with the environment to adjust emotions, cope with frustrations, and manage distress. Parents who are depressed and out of tune with their child’s needs and emotions leave the child unsupported, forcing them to manage their own anger, sadness, and fear with their limited, immature behavioral repertoire.
