Show Notes:

While some kids with big emotions blame others, others are incredibly hard on themselves. And it can be devastating to hear them beat themselves up when they make a mistake! Often when they do, our instinct is to tell them it will be okay, that it's not a big deal, that everyone makes mistakes. But as you've probably noticed, that doesn't make them stop this behavior in the long run, and it can even make them feel worse in the moment. The good news is that we can use Leadership Parenting strategies to help our children – and ourselves! – handle these situations more effectively.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why previous attempts to help our kids calm down haven't worked -- and often make things worse instead

• Qualities that many children with big emotions have in common (and why it feels like they regularly get stuck in cycles of negativity)

• How to stay regulated and help kids get unstuck so they can learn how to handle their mistakes in the moment… and build resilience for the future
