Masks are a struggle for many kids, but if your child has anxiety or OCD it can be a much BIGGER struggle. This could be due to many reasons. Maybe they feel claustrophobic. Maybe they have sensory issues. Or maybe they have social anxiety and it seems embarrassing. Regardless of what the struggle is the end result is the same – a child refusing to wear a mask.

This becomes extra tricky when masks are required in many areas. So in this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I outline some mask hacks to help reduce your child’s anxiety and get them to acclimate to the discomfort.

Mini-Coaching Episodes:
I am starting my mini-coaching episodes! Do you want to be a $5 mini-coaching sponsor and be able to submit questions for the episode? Or a $10 coaching sponsor and get an additional gift of 30% off all my classes? Or a $40 super-sized sponsor and get all that plus…access to the AT Parenting Community (even though it is closed. Learn more at www.ATparentingCommunity.com) plus a personalized video for your child or teen? The last sponsorship level has only 10 spots due to the level of work in creating those videos.

I would love to provide you personalized support and guidance for whatever you are going through. You can sponsor the mini-coaching episodes by going here to sign up: www.patreon.com/atparentingsurvival
