‘Help your child grow on the journey they are on towards being an adult’

Kay explores the ways people react to toddlers who are unable to manage their anger and emotions.

The reactions of others can often be harsh and lack compassion but as a parent, you have a key role in helping your child learn how to manage their emotions as part of their journey through childhood and onwards towards being an adult. Listen in and find out how to manage anger in the right way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Children must have childhood learning; the situation should not be about moving into a reactive state.
• We need to teach our children that having emotions is ok and it’s how you act on them that makes a difference.
• As an adult when your child is angry don’t react take a few deep breathes and help them move out of their heightened state and listen to what they are trying to say.
• Make them feel you understand what they are going through.
• Hold them in your arms and let them feel calm.
• That child will know you have compassion and they can put away their fears and tears.
• When your child is yelling at you, it’s not you, they are angry at.
• Know that a full meltdown needs to run its course and you can only be there to make sure they are safe and secure.
• Once they are calm they can tell you what they need because you have taught them how to manage their emotions.
