Feeling like your child’s meltdowns and blow-ups are almost impossible to calm?

Do you get super frustrated when your validation and calm words seem to fall on deaf ears?

You’re not alone. In today’s episode of Sustainable Parenting with Flora McCormick, we’re diving into positive parenting strategies that give you clear, effective tools to help your child manage their emotions—even in the most explosive situations.

We’ll talk about why “neck-up parenting” (trying to fix big feelings with logic and reasoning) rarely works, and how shifting toward “naming it to tame it” makes a huge difference.

If you’ve been looking for calm parenting tips and want to practice gentle discipline that actually helps in the heat of the moment, this episode is for you.💚
