We may think that eliminating all anxiety from our kids' lives is the endgame. But Dr. Catherine McCarthy, Heather Tedesco, PhD, and Jennifer Weaver, authors of the new book "Raising a Kid Who Can," discuss why admitting you don't have all the answers is actually necessary to help kids thrive.

Dr. Catherine McCarthy, Heather Tedesco, PhD, and Jennifer Weaver, LCSW are mental health experts, whose work provides parents with the tools they need to navigate a complex world and help their kids move from anxious to adaptable.

Margaret, Jennifer, Catherine, and Heather discuss:

Why we're living in the age of anxiety—and how to help kids navigate it
Why letting our kids talk about their feelings too much can backfire
Why the goal isn't zero anxiety
