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.

Q. Our children are both in college and my wife and I are learning each other all over again. We often fight the way we used to fight before the children were born. Is this typical?
A. Transition times can be really challenging in couples’ relationships, such as having a baby, when the kids start school, or leave home and retirement. This is the core idea behind Love-Track.com: to help couples move through these developmental phases.
Now that your children have left for college, you are faced with reconnecting and creating a new direction and new vision for your individual and shared lives. It’s not uncommon to have tension and conflict during this transition process, especially if you aren’t clear about what is happening. We suggest you both discuss what you want the relationship to be. Instead of floundering in the remnants of what was and now is no longer, be proactive in creating a shared vision of the future of your relationship. Some people rekindle a close, intimate connection during this phase of their relationships. Others reach outward to make contributions to their communities that they didn’t have the time, energy or resources to do earlier in their family life. It’s like planning an exciting trip together: Where do you want to go? How do you want to spend your time? What do you want to see?
