Screens are still torn. Fences are still down. And blue tarps still cover many rooftops. But the reality is that hurricane season is coming. Again.
According to experts, the start of the new season can heighten feelings of stress and anxiety among parents and children.
"As we enter another hurricane season and still see remnants of last year's season, parents may feel a renewed agitation," said Carol Berns, psychotherapist, co-founder and program director of the Children's Bereavement Center in Miami. "When parents become agitated, children very often pick up on these feelings and get agitated too."
In fact, the mere mention of the word "hurricane" may be enough to scare young children who might assume that all hurricanes will be like last year's most devastating storms.
According to Berns, one of the best ways to ease children's concerns and help them feel secure is to let them know your family is prepared. The National Hurricane Center has designated May 21-27 as Hurricane Preparedness Week to encourage families to be informed and plan ahead.
