Episode 262

Many children with big feelings react strongly to situations that seem like no big deal, like when they forget to take a plate away or have to fix one thing on their homework. In those moments, kids get really upset, and they don’t react well when we tell them that it’s no big deal. These sensitive kids often need something different than logic or reason…but what?

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What is beneath “sensitive” children’s big reactions
• What they really need in that moment in order to calm down 
• How you can foster resilience in your child in a way that also builds self esteem that lasts
