Have you ever had parenting whiplash? You know, when your child goes from laughing to losing it in a matter of seconds? Maybe it’s because you picked the wrong-colored cup, said ‘no’ to a snack, or asked them to turn off their game—suddenly, you’re dealing with a full-on emotional eruption, and you have no idea how you got here.

But what if I told you there are actually patterns behind these emotional explosions? And once you see them, you can’t unsee them! Today, we’re breaking down three of the most common hidden triggers behind emotional outbursts—and, most importantly, what you can do in the moment to keep the peace and help your child regulate their emotions. Let’s jump in!

 

In this episode, you will learn:

·        There’s more to emotional outbursts than meets the eye. What if your child isn’t just overreacting—but reacting to something deeper?

·        Sometimes, the world feels too big, too loud, and too much. One common trigger might be hiding in plain sight.

·        Changes and transitions can be harder than you think. The way you move your child from one thing to the next could be making things worse—or much easier.

·        Even small surprises can lead to big emotions. A simple shift in how you approach the unexpected can make all the difference.

·        Your response matters more than you realize. Once you see these triggers, you can’t unsee them—and you’ll have new tools to help.

 Want to know how to recognize these triggers and prevent meltdowns before they start? Then tune in!
