SECOND CHANCE SUNDAY - revisiting your favourite posts from the last 7 days.

Worries are part of growing up. As children learn about the world, their brains are still working out what feels safe, what feels uncertain, and how to make sense of big feelings.

This visual shows common worries by age — to help young people (and the adults supporting them) see that many worries are developmentally normal, not signs of something 'wrong'. These are common patterns, not fixed rules. Every child’s worries are shaped by their environment, temperament and experiences.

We stop at around age 14 because, from this point on, worries become more individual and tied to identity, friendships, belonging and life experiences. Support at this stage is less about reassurance and more about connection, curiosity and co-regulation.

If your child is feeling overwhelmed, or if worries are starting to take over everyday life, our When Worries Take Over Toolkit offers step-by-step scripts, support strategies and gentle, brain-based tools you can use right away — link in comments below ⬇️ or via Linktree Shop in Bio.
