In this episode I share how Polyvagal Theory - cutting edge understanding of how the human nervous system works - can help us parent our PDA children and teens. Specifically, I look at how it helps us answer the following paradoxical questions:

1 - Why do things seem to get worse after I dive in on accommodating?

2 - How can my child turn their responses on or off if the behaviors truly aren't under their conscious control?

3 - Similarly, how can equalizing be social in nature if not under their control?

4 - Why, after making so much progress with my PDA child, do I personally feel so awful in my own nervous system?

To learn more about and figure out if your child or teen is PDA, you can take my FREE Clarity Masterclass at www.atpeaceparents.com.
