Why OutDaughtered Fans Are Worried About Parker Busby

Parker Busby's anxiety has been addressed on OutDaughtered before. In July, Parker was assessed by an occupational therapist on the show. Adam explained the decision to seek help. "I am glad we are taking this step," he said. "I am just hoping we come away from it with a better understanding of how we can help her."

The TLC couple explained that Parker seems to get stressed out easily and shuts down in stressful situations. "Parker hates new things and being in the spotlight," said Danielle.

At the session, the occupational therapist confirmed that Parker is, indeed, shy, especially in new situations. "Things that I think you can do is to just work on expanding those opportunities to play with other kids," suggested the therapist. "Taking her to the park, yoga, that can help her learn to... become calm."
