In moments of overwhelm, kids don't need lectures
Help them make sense of their experience when you notice:
-
Big feelings, few words...
They're frustrated, but "fine" is all you get.
-
Sibling conflicts...
Fights escalate to tears or tattling.
-
Mixed messages...
You can't find the cause—or the off-ramp—because you don't really know what's going on.
-
Demands and complaints...
All their asks seem to come at you from sideways.
When you're at a loss, pull out the cards to start the conversation:
