SUMMARY:Understand Emotions\, Stress\, and the Brain and You Will Understand Challenging Behavior
DESCRIPTION:When your child loses it\, it can be hard to see their behavior for what it is.\nIt’s difficult to avoid interpreting their behavior as manipulative\, intentional\, or personal when in reality it is more likely to be a biological stress response to a situation where their needs are not being met\, they feel unsafe\, or they aren’t able to meet expectations. \nLearn about the autonomic nervous system\, the rumble-rage-recovery cycle\, stress and the perception of safety\, and bottom-up vs. top-down behavior. \nParent Presentation\nJames E.
