Your Parenting Long Game

Episode 343: When a Child Has a Big Reaction to a Limit You Set


Listen Later

We know setting limits for our children is an important part of parenting. But kids with big emotions often have over-the-top reactions that seem disproportionate to the situation. How can we handle their reactions effectively when we are exhausted by their rudeness, disrespect, and negotiations? 

In this episode, you’ll learn: 

  • Why children have big reactions to reasonable limits

  • What we’re doing as parents that often makes it worse

  • How we can help our kids handle discomfort when things don’t go their way (without losing our influence!)
