Episode 138: Your kids are maxed out, not acting out
from The Huddle Wisdom Podcast with Dr Davin Tan · host Dr Davin Tan is a child and adolescent psychiatrist and parent.
Ever found yourself thinking, “Why is my child acting like this?” In this first episode, we reframe what many of us call "misbehaviour" not as disobedience, but as a signal of stress, overwhelm, or mismatch between a child and their environment. You’ll hear: Why some children “explode” over nothing How stress builds under the surface until it doesn’t Why focusing on behavior misses the point A different way to respond (that actually helps) This isn’t about letting kids off the hook. It’s about understanding what’s actually going on so you can stop firefighting and start connecting.
