Resources: Review - School phobia from a personal angle

1 min read
School phobia, panic attacks and anxiety in children; By Marianne Csoti, published by JKP; ISBN 1 84310 091 6; 267pp; 16.95 This book is written both for parents and for professionals working with children who are experiencing difficulties in attending school, along with anxiety in any other aspects of their lives.

It is broken down into readable segments, which fit together as a whole, but also work as standalone chapters, something all readers will find helpful. Also helpful is the fact that Marianne Csoti provides web site details as well as other references at the close of each chapter.

For parents with a child going through problems, this book will be invaluable in showing them that they are not alone. Csoti - whose own child experienced school phobia - gives examples of places where families can find support as well as highlighting what parents and children can do to help themselves.

The text is written in a style that most parents should find accessible, although whether they will find time both to read it all, and to try out the many things which Csoti suggests, has to be a moot point.
