WHEN THE WORLD FEELS LIKE A SCARY PLACE Essential Conversations for Anxious Parents and Worried Kids

Robin Miles's performance channels the type of wise and nurturing voice you'd expect to hear from a child psychologist who aims to help kids deal with today's tumultuous world. With phrasing clarity that is at once relaxed and focused, she sounds like a teacher or care provider parents want to learn from. And the author doesn't disappoint with her accessible lesson on how parents can help children when they are bombarded by stressors like violence and bullying, tech and information overload, climate and environmental threats, economic and social inequality, and political and social polarization. Up against these disruptive realities, parents need advice to be delivered by someone with Miles's confidence at the microphone and deep understanding of these important parenting challenges.
