Do you lose your cool with your kids, or have a hard time setting limits?
Are there times when your child's behavior brings on overwhelming anger and frustration?
Sometimes the demands of parenting push us to the edge, and we can't show up as what Terry Real refers to as our "Wise Adult."
Instead, our "Wounded" or "Adaptive" Child takes over, and we become flooded with painful emotions, leading to terrible power struggles with our kids.
In my new class with Terry, we'll share tools and strategies to manage your emotional triggers, co-regulate your kids, and set empathetic limits, so you can nurture confident, resilient kids!
