Weathering the storms during a visit! I reflect on a visit where I am walking into a storm. He’s mad and wants the phone; mom is trying to set limits and saying no however just as we get over one storm another one is brewing. How do I balance my support? Who do I engage with…child, parent?? What is my role? What is the plan? These things and more are thundering through my head as I try and support mom in finding strategies that will be manageable for the family and practicing them in the moment.
