Across the country, but especially in high-achieving communities,  children are showing more and more signs of stress. From an early age through to high school, rates of anxiety are rising. 

How can parents strike a good balance between preparing kids for a highly competitive world, yet protect them from damaging pressure? How can we help them develop the skills to cope with the challenges they face? Dr. Robert Evans will offer concrete suggestions for managing this key dilemma.
