Have you ever stood in the chaos of a store aisle, grappling with your child's melting down, feeling the weight of judging eyes on you? handling disrespect without losing our cool is a universal parenting challenge. In todays episode we’re talking about why our kids get disrespectful and some ways we can handle it.
Our children are learning about the world and their emotions, so it's essential to approach their emotional upheavals with empathy. Remember, we are not here to control our children, but rather to teach them emotional self-regulation. It's important not to take their behavior personally. As challenging as it might be, staying calm helps us maintain our leadership role as guides during these emotionally charged moments. At times, these situations can feel stressful. However, we can still be supportive even under pressure. It's about learning to decode the messages behind our kids' meltdowns. By leading by example, we can help build their emotional resilience.
