Two to four, hang in there, their brain is still developing www.instagram.com/p/DZnU0OXCWnF/?img_index=2&igsh=NTZmOHMwZDJweHY4 ... See MoreSee Less

follow @modernparentsguide for more neuroscience-backed parenting insights. Ages 2–4 humble even the most patient parents. One minute they’re laughing. The next they’re screaming because you cut their sandwich the wrong way. Or turned off the wrong show. Or handed them the blue cup instead of the green one. It feels irrational. But neuroscience tells a different story. ➡️ The prefrontal cortex responsible for impulse control, emotional regulation, and flexible thinking is still under construction. ➡️ The emotional centers of the brain are highly active long before the brakes are fully installed. ➡️ Toddlers feel emotions intensely but lack the skills to manage them. That’s why transitions feel impossible. Leaving the park. Stopping a game. Getting dressed. Going to bed. What looks like defiance is often overwhelm. And what helps most isn’t harsher consequences. It’s co-regulation. ➡️ Lowering your voice instead of raising it. ➡️ Getting closer instead of farther away. ➡️ Helping their nervous system borrow your calm until they can create their own. The goal isn’t a child who never melts down. The goal is a brain that slowly learns how to recover. And that learning happens through thousands of moments where a calm adult stays present. If you’re exhausted by tantrums, power struggles, constant defiance, and feeling like nothing works, the Chaos to Connection Guide gives you the exact scripts and neuroscience-backed tools to stay calm and get cooperation without yelling. Comment “CONNECT” and I’ll DM you the link.

Many of our students don't know what a transitional object is....www.instagram.com/reel/DZdIDjYqdv8/?igsh=c20yZjA1amhybmpi ... See MoreSee Less

For the next few weeks, I will be talking about pediatric anxiety. I will start off by making a distinction between separation anxiety and separation anxiety disorder. Separation anxiety peaks between 9 and 18 months and typically subsides by age 3. It is a healthy part of child development. It stems from a developing relationship with caregivers combined with limited capacity to maintain an emotional bond toward someone even when they are absent, upset, or disappointed. Your baby has finally learned that you still exist when you walk away. That is a huge cognitive achievement. But that skill is not fully 100% online yet. Your child can hold you in mind for only a short time. When you are gone longer than that, the mental image of you starts to fade. That fading feels scary to children. Separation anxiety disorder is a different beast and I will get into my later video. This is where the teddy bear comes in. The blanket or the worn-out teddy is not a babyish habit. Tsychoanalyst Donald Winnicott called it a transitional object. It works like a bridge. It keeps the feeling of you alive when you are not there. Every time your child hugs that bear at daycare, your child is practicing how to carry you on the inside. So do not take the teddy away to teach independence. In fact, the teddy is how your child learns independence. Series: Becoming You on Apple TV

The goal in education should not be to enforce attendance through fear or consequences, but to remove barriers and create conditions where students feel supported, safe, and able to engage in their education.sac.ymhc.ngo #schoolanxiety #schoolattendancechallenges #schoolavoidance #schoolabsenteeism #educationsupportteam #schoolwidestrategy #youreducationmatters #SchoolAttendance #ymhc ...
