Signs of stress in children

Children feel the same stresses as adults; however, when they are anxious and stressed it often is displayed differently. Here are some signs to be aware of:

  • BEHAVIOR REGRESSION: Children may display behaviors you thought they had outgrown. Look for unusual behaviors, such as needing a special toy for comfort, bedwetting or baby talk.
  • CHANGES IN EATING AND SLEEPING: Children will show either a sharp increase or decrease in appetite. Your child may experience difficulties falling asleep, sleeping longer than usual or nightmares.
  • ACTING OUT: Your child may start pushing boundaries, displaying aggression, not following directions or arguing with family members. Consult your child鈥檚 healthcare provider to determine the best steps for addressing these behaviors.
