We all know how things can go south quickly when emotions are running high with our kids, with ourselves, and even with our adult relationships. In this episode, we introduce the “Window of Tolerance” and we discover ways this concept can help us all (even at a young age) understand what is happening and get to the other side of it.

5 Things You Can See
In our current climate of converging crises we often find ourselves interacting with friends, family and kids who are flooded with emotional responses. In this season, we consider helpful ways to respond in these interactions and how to help our kids--and others--make sense of what they are feeling and how to receive care.

*Discussion Questions: *
What is one thing that has surprised you about parenthood? How does it differ from the picture you had before you became a dad?
Who are you? Who are your kids? How does that inform or influence how you interact with your kids?
What are your core family values? When you look at your calendar (or last year’s calendar), does your schedule represent these values? If so, how can you continue this? If not, what do you want to adjust in the future?
When you reflect on this current season, what are some of the new ways you’ve connected with your kids? How can you carry on these new ways of connecting even after quarantine is over?
