Los Angeles County understands these next few days and possibly weeks may be tough as you start the school year online. There will be frustrations with the transition. Feelings of anxiety, stress, anger or depression during this time are normal.
Parents and caregivers should be on the lookout for signs of anxiety and depression in children. This can take different forms – being withdrawn, acting out, disobeying, being tearful.
