Why are we triggered when our kids "copy bad behavior"?
It has a lot to do with the stories we tell ourselves about the way they're acting.
If we shift our perspective just slightly, we can reduce conflict AND build the emotional regulation muscle in our children.
Here's what Heidi covers in this podcast, taken from a live Q&A call in her parenting program:
• Why the stories we tell ourselves can increase conflict with our kids
• The hidden reason why our bodies switch to 'fight-or-flight' when we think we're being manipulated
• What our children *actually* need when it seems like they're *choosing* difficult behavior
