Episode 289
Raising a child with big emotions can feel like a roller coaster some days. One moment they might be yelling at you to go away… and the next moment they’re angry that you did what they asked. What do we do when our child does something that seems illogical and nothing we do is helping?
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What’s underneath kids’ seemingly-illogical behavior
- How to understand what’s going on inside our kids before addressing their (outer) behavior
- How to make a plan for handling your child’s big — and sometimes illogical — reactions in the future. (And it’s easier than you think!)
