How can I help my child overcome their fears?

It's great that you want to help! Can you tell me what specific fears your child is experiencing?

My child is really afraid of the dark.

That's a common fear! You can start by gradually exposing them to the dark in a safe environment, like using a night light.

What if they still get scared even with the night light?

You can try talking to them about their fears, reassuring them, and even using fun stories or games to make the dark less intimidating.

Should I avoid talking about their fears?

Not at all! Open communication is key. Encourage them to express their feelings and validate their emotions.
