The Meltdown That Changed Me Forever (And 2 Phrases You Must Use To Teach Instead of Punish). #617

Calm Parenting Podcast

This is the day I realized I was so consumed with how my son’s attitude made me feel, that I wasn’t actually helping him. I needed him to behave... so I could behave. In this episode, I provide a step-by-step guide for navigating those combustible situations you face daily—including the two phrases that work 99% of the time to de-escalate and allow you to teach instead of punish.
