PSP 207: How to Help Kids Who are Scared of Bugs

Many kids and even adults are scared of bugs. But for some of our kids it goes way beyond that. Perhaps they won’t go outside, won’t go to the park or won’t go swimming because of their fear of insects. Maybe they are worried about taking a shower or a bath or even going to the bathroom. What are you supposed to do to help your child move through such a debilitating fear of bugs? In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about some of the approaches I take when trying to help a child with their fear of bugs. Hopefully it can help your kids too! *** This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be used to replace the guidance of a qualified professional.
