Here at MTC we understand that parenting can be one of the most rewarding, yet challenging experiences in life.
When your child is struggling with mental health issues, it can be especially difficult and overwhelming.
If you're reading this, you may be in a situation similar to what Rachel and Ash experienced with their HSC.
Their kiddo was suicidal, wishing to die, yelling, freezing up, and refusing to go to school.
Rachel & Ash went to countless therapists and tried many approaches, but nothing seemed to work.
They were at their wits end and didn't know what to do.
They were worried about their child’s safety and well-being, and they were also struggling to manage the rest of their family and their own stress and emotions.
But there is hope, Rachel and Ash found our program.

"This too shall pass."
We've heard this encouraging statement so many times.
Unfortunately this is what parents cling to for years with no end in sight to the meltdown cycle.
It is crucial to recognize when it is time to reach out for support.
Today we discuss "enough is enough" as a sign that it is time for a strategic change in your parenting approach & the dangers of holding on in survival mode and hoping that things will change on their own.

So you ‘survived’ the first 12 or so Christmases of your HSC’s life, and now you’re looking forward to a smoother, less stressful holiday season?
Well … Good luck with that!
Unfortunately, parenting a sensitive child at any age comes with its challenges.
And while those holiday challenges might be different now than when they were younger …
You’re still going to have your patience tested this holiday season.
That’s why I wanted to dedicate this week’s topic to any parent of a teen who’s worried about the month ahead.
Now, a lot of what I speak about in terms of holidays and HSCs in general still applies for teens.
Routine is important.
And you definitely don’t want to overhaul your plans, just because you’re worried of how they might react,
But there are also special considerations that only apply to teens.

There's a huge misconception in the mental health field and with professionals across the board entirely...
Teaching coping skills is reactive when used to stop the meltdown. In that moment, your child is beyond the point of learning from you or learning a coping skill.

Any parent of an HSC knows, the holiday season can be a NIGHTMARE.
Whether it’s overstimulation at family parties …
Disappointment surrounding gifts …
Or just the change from day-to-day routine …
There’s so much happening that can trigger a meltdown.
So it’s totally understandable why a lot of the parents I speak to dread this time of year.
While other parents are putting up the tree, buying gifts and enjoying their kids’ excitement …
HSC parents are preparing for a month of ups, downs and never-ending stress.
So what can we do about this?
I mean, you want to enjoy the holidays, right? Not just survive them.

I just got off a heartbreaking call.
I was speaking with a family who were ready to ship their 10-year old daughter off to her Aunt’s house … Permanently!
This Mom and Dad were at their wits end.
Because they couldn’t imagine 8 more years of parenting stress.
Especially when their daughter was such an angel outside the house.
But at home?
They were being torn apart.
Sadly, I’ve heard things like this many times before.
And if I’m honest, I don’t think these parents would have abandoned their daughter like that.
But unfortunately, when you get to this level, it also tells me something else.

This week we are sharing an interview that has been impactful for many of our audience.
If it feels like your HSC is down in the dumps more than the average kid,
You’ll want to hear this.
You are not alone.
Our client Savannah knows exactly how that feels, and that feeling was HARD to work through.
Savannah’s story is common for parents who are stuck in the meltdown cycle.
She wanted to be a mom for such a long time,
And the fact that her child seemed melancholy SO often was disheartening.
She describes her HSC as feeling upset and on edge constantly,
Crying often,
And even stated that there was a lack of connection.
She felt like no matter how much her and Alan tried,
They could not meet their HSC’s needs.
Tune in to hear Savannah’s story.
