When Your Child's Anxiety Reveals What's Really Wrong
Why are today's children five to eight times more anxious than kids during the Great Depression? The answer isn't what you'd expect. It's not smartphones alone, or academic pressure, or even social media-though these all play a role. The real culprit is something more fundamental: a profound loss of control over their own lives. Think about it. When did your child last make a meaningful decision about their day? Their schedule? Their future? For most kids, the answer is sobering. We've created a generation where every hour is managed, every choice is supervised, and every mistake is prevented-and their brains are paying the price. The research is startling. A sense of control isn't just nice to have; it's the single most important factor in human wellbeing. Lab studies show that rats who believe they can stop electric shocks experience dramatically lower stress-even when their wheel isn't actually connected to anything. The perception of control alone changes their brain chemistry. Now consider your teenager, whose entire day-from wake-up time to bedtime-is dictated by others. Their stress response isn't overreacting; it's responding rationally to a genuine threat: powerlessness.
