5 Parent-Focused Strategies to Ease Our Child's Challenging Behaviour
In this episode, I go over five helpful strategies parents can implement when their kids are having a hard time or “challenging” behaviour.
When your child regularly throws tantrums, it may seem counterintuitive for you, as the parent, to review your own behaviour. After all, you're not the one screaming in the grocery store.
However, if we as parents first focus on how we act and shape our interactions with our kids, we can then learn how to shift the focus away from the challenging behaviour the child is engaging in.
The result?
We suddenly have a lot more control and the ability to make changes for the better.
When we change our focus and actions as parents to support our children with the behavioural issues they are dealing with, we can help improve the overall well-being of your family dynamic.
In this episode, I cover:
- Why changing our focus from our child to our own behaviour is so helpful
- What we have control over and what we don’t (here’s a hint: we only have control over our own behaviour)
- How to make the most of these suggested parent-focused strategies
- Five parent-focused strategies:
- Attachment
- Value-based parenting
- Mindful parenting
- Clear communication
- Self-care
