Mothers Matter

Why is anxiety so prevalent these days, and how can parents help their children who suffer from it?  Erica Komisar, psychoanalyst and parent coach, answers these questions and many more.  We discuss the impact of social media on young people, how to help children and adolescents grow into healthy adults, and the best ways to encourage your young people into positive behaviours.  Erica is the author of the excellent book, 'Being there: why prioritizing motherhood in the first three years matters'.  You can also catch her on podcast 5: Mothers and Guilt.  Many thanks to James Ede of Be Heard Productions, who produced this in between coastguard callouts!
