Su hijo tambi amp eacute n lo sabe. Los ni amp ntilde os que se preocupan demasiado son prisioneros de sus miedos. Hacen todo lo posible por evitar situaciones que les causan miedo y hacen las mismas preguntas de ansiedad una y otra vez. Sin embargo, las respuestas no les dan pr amp aacute cticamente ning amp uacute n alivio. Los padres y cuidadores pasan mucho tiempo tranquilizando, persuadiendo, acomodando y haciendo cualquier otra cosa que se les ocurra para minimizar la angustia de su hijo.   Pero no funciona. La ansiedad sigue teniendo el control. Como indudablemente ha descubierto, decir simplemente a un ni amp ntilde o ansioso que deje de preocuparse no ayuda en absoluto. Tampoco ayuda aplicar l amp oacute gica de adultos, ni permitir que su hijo evite las situaciones temidas, ni consol amp aacute ndolo cada vez que exprese sus temores.Este libro forma parte de la serie de gu amp iacute as amp ldquo QU amp Eacute HACER amp rdquo para ni amp ntilde os (What-to-Do Guides for Kids amp reg ) de Magination Press e incluye una amp quot Introducci amp oacute n para padres y cuidadores amp quot .
