This episode is for the parents of very impulsive kiddos. Who tends to be the common denominator when injuries or broken items happen. I share how I'm leaning into the risky / not allowed word "shit" to activate my son's brain and help him through a safety checklist before acting. This isn't a complete solution for impulsivity! But it's helping my son grow his situational awareness and the more reps he takes, the better he'll be able to manage impulsive urges! 🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I share how to approach the holidays from a nervous system perspective. When there is prediction there is less friction. So we are not leaving the days up to chance. We are creating focused blocks of time that engage our children in activities they like and want to do. We are prioritizing what they want to have happen and we are creating a little mystery with some special time blocks as well.  Additionally, with extended family, let's get them on board by creating a menu to choose from where they get their 1:1 time, but with things that are predictable and accepted.  And finally, the main key to making this all work is the regulation breaks that help us transition out of one activity into the next.  I hope this serves you very well this holiday and I can't wait to hear how you implement this strategy!   🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.
