Afraid of something that s/he was not afraid of before (or a previous fear or worry seems to get worse)
Why it happens: After something scary happens, we can become afraid of things that are reminders of what happened.
Is this a problem?: Are fears stopping your child from doing (safe) things s/he would otherwise be able to do, or from enjoying activities even if she does manage to do them?
