Many parents assume their sensitive kids will eventually outgrow meltdowns—but what if that’s just not the case? Today we’re diving into why big feelings don’t just disappear with time and why trying to fix or reason kids out of their emotions doesn’t actually help.
Meltdowns aren’t just overreactions to small stressors—they happen because kids have been holding in big emotions all day, and they don’t yet have the skills to manage them. The problem isn’t the feelings themselves but the lack of tools to process them.
So, what can we do? Tune in as we explore how to truly support our kids through meltdowns, helping them build the skills they need instead of just hoping they’ll "grow out of it." When we shift our approach, we create a space where our kids feel safe with their emotions—and that changes everything.
