7 months ago
- Understand how ‘defiance’ is often a skills gap and switch from punishments and rewards to brain-aligned expectations and simple accommodations that set your child up to succeed.
- Learn quick, doable resets—breath, grounding, saying less—so you stay steady, co-regulate faster, and help your child settle even on tough days.
- Use clear language and practical strategies to handle school/family pushback, stop future-tripping, and reframe home life around empathy and safety—so meltdowns get shorter and less frequent.
