As a parent, your deepest instinct is to protect your child from distress. And when summer rolls in—with its bright skies, popsicles, and pool days—it brings a fresh batch of both magic and meltdowns.

Your instinct is to help them feel safe. Maybe you offer constant reassurance, answer every anxious question with extra patience, or agree to skip the BBQ, the pool party, or the overnight trip. Maybe you keep tight to your usual routines—even when the season invites spontaneity.

But what if some of those loving efforts to reduce their anxiety are actually helping it grow?

Does your child feel things more deeply than others, reacting intensely to even minor events? These 'supersensers' need extra patience, validation, and tailored strategies to thrive. Learn how to recognize their unique traits and provide the support they need to navigate big emotions with confidence.
