Ep. 56 Shouldn't I Be Teaching My Child That Hitting Is Wrong? (Part 3)
from The Regulated Parent · host Afshan Tafler
It's the fear so many parents of PDA and autistic kids carry: that today's aggression means something frightening about their child's future. In Part 3 of this series, Afshan gently takes that fear apart — and offers a completely different way to understand how our kids actually learn.You'll hear why “just stopping” the behaviour doesn't teach, the difference between stopping a behaviour and building the capacity underneath it, how the meaning we attach to our child's behaviour drives our own reactions, and why the most protective thing you can do for your child's future isn't to frighten the behaviour out of them now.Part 1 is the foundation (what's happening inside YOU). Part 2 is what to do in the storm. And Part 3 — this one — is how they truly learn, and how to set the future-fear down and hold real hope.— LINKS —📖 Read the blog version: https://www.illuminateu.ca/blog/shouldn-t-i-be-teaching-my-child-that-hitting-is-wrong-part-3🌀 FREE live class — The Regulation Rebuild: 12 Nervous System Shifts for parents of high-needs kids (PDA, autistic, ADHD, ODD, OCD).
