The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}

EP 245: Can't Wait!!! Frustration Tolerance and Delayed Gratification


Listen Later

Does your child get stuck in “buy me, buy me, buy me!” mode? Or maybe they melt down when they can’t have what they want right now?

I know it seems selfish, manipulative, or even bratty- but we want to put on our x-ray vision goggles and get curious about WHY. 

In this episode, we’ll unpack why delayed gratification and frustration tolerance are Owl Brain skills. 

You’ll learn how to grow your child’s capacity to wait, tolerate disappointment, and handle “no” without losing connection (and without losing your mind).


 In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why delayed gratification and frustration tolerance depend on a strong Owl Brain
  • How to make waiting concrete without turning it into a reward system
  • Why connection and co-regulation- not consequences- grow real frustration tolerance
