When children are anxious, they can show us how they're feeling in many ways. They might have a tantrum that looks like they're angry. They could have a meltdown that looks like they're sad. Or they might shut down and seem like they're being avoidant, defiant or "lazy". Or it could be a combination of all of these behaviours complete with crying, yelling, stomping & slamming doors. Whatever their behaviour looks like, we can be pretty certain that heightened anxiety is at the root of their emotional outbursts. But that still doesn't make it easy to deal with in the moment.
