Kid Stress is not Just Kidstuff

How stressed are kids today? Pretty darn stressed according the latest surveys. And it’s not (as many parents might assume) all related to interactions with parents and other family members. Kids stress about a lot of the same things adults stress over: Pressure to succeed, appearance, money, etc. Here are a few findings:

- 44% of young people say doing well in school was a source of stress.

- 30% worry about their family having enough money.

- 10% felt pressure over their extracurricular activities.

- 8% say relationships with their parents were a source of stress.
