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 boysThank you so much for your [tantrum] Audio.....I listened to it last night and I find the info AMAZING!!!...Some of it I instinctively knew but just hadn't acted upon it. Thank you so much once again.

Father of twoThis 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.
