Starting School: Tips for Parents  
by the American Psychiatric Association

Soon millions of children will start school for the first time. For most, this will be an exciting and positive experience. However, it also represents a major transition, which can be challenging for some children. Parents, teachers, and other adults can help reduce the anxiety associated with starting school. The following are specific suggestions:

Spend time talking to kids about school before classes begin. Describe what school will be like and what will happen throughout the day.

Bring kids to visit the school in advance. If possible, show them their classroom and other important landmarks, such as the playground, lunchroom, and the rest room.

Let kids know that it is OK to feel nervous or worried when starting school. Reassure them that everyone feels a little anxious when they do things for the first time.

Help kids establish a regular routine to get ready for school. Let them participate in making choices about what to wear, what to have for breakfast, or what to bring for lunch.

When anger is part of a family’s tradition, it spreads itself much like a virus to future generations. The wider the spread, the more difficult the anger is to contain.
