Managing Behavioral Concerns During the Quarantine: An Alternative Approach (Middle & High School)


Listen Later

Michael and Elizabeth discuss various reasons that behavioral concerns for middle schoolers and high schoolers may be increasing during this time. They explore the developmentally appropriate, emotional reactions that many teens and adolescents are experiencing as a result of the quarantine, including losing structure, socialization, and extracurricular activities. They provide ideas on how to be aware of your child's emotional reactions, as well as ideas on how to assist your child in feeling validated and supported. They also provide various approaches to addressing behavioral concerns... The information they provide goes beyond "taking away electronics" and instead they offer solutions to address the root of the behaviors.
