Honestly, where before I felt like I was in a stand off, now I gently try to help them diffuse their anger by trying to articulate what they're going through. It's like MAGIC. Why didn't I know about this before?? And that just enables us to get through the tantrum in a manageable way.

Mother of 2 boysThis gentle and sensitive gift of wisdom and understanding has instantly created a change in behaviour in my son when he is confronted by something he wants and is not getting. For me it has created the relief and joy of not feeling stressed and powerless in a tantrum situation and the reassurance that it’s ok to set some loving boundaries.

Father of twoYour talk is clear and organized while being candid and comforting. It's what parents like me need to hear. It also makes good sense as we've been poised for an entirely new approach. This one fits with us and gives me hope. I only wish more helpful info is soon to come!
