REPLAY: Child Always Dysregulated? Try This!!!

***This episode originally aired on February 16th, 2021*** Connection. Empathizing. Offering choices. These parenting ideas sound good in theory but if you are living with a child who seems chronically angry or won’t get out of bed or is otherwise pretty much always unhappy or dysregulated- none of those parenting suggestions seem to do much good. So…what should you do instead??? This episode takes you through the three places I always recommend parents start first when they are trying to support their child who feels chronically dysregulated. 1. Food, water, and movement 2. Structure, routing, and predictability 3. Stick close These may or may not help your child to decrease their level of arousal and dysregulation but they are always where I recommend parents start first!
