In this enlightening episode, Will and CarrieAnn Standfest dive into the world of overreactions in children and how parents can skilfully navigate these emotional outbursts. From the cereal aisle meltdown to the scraped knee in the park, they explore why kids (and yes, adults too) sometimes respond more intensely than a situation warrants. The Standfests discuss the importance of emotional vocabulary, the science behind our brain's reactions, and the role of parents as calm co-regulators. With a blend of humor and practical advice, they offer insights into recognizing the difference between big and small problems, expanding your child's ability to express their feelings, and the patience required to see the fruits of connected parenting. Tune in to learn how to foster resilience and understanding in your family, one Connected Parenting Minute at a time.
