My son (11 years old) had a dream

This morning my son told me he had a dream where he worked in an office with cubicles, and he had to go to the bathroom really badly but they wouldn’t let him. Then the cubicle started shrinking and he was afraid it would crush him. But just when the cubicle walls started to squeeze him he started shrinking too, getting smaller and smaller until he thought he was going to disappear. Is that not an intense work anxiety dream for a kid who doesn’t even work yet? It makes me so sad. I guess kids are more aware of the future they are being prepared for than we’d like to believe.
