SUMMARY

All feelings are allowed, right? So… what do I do when my child becomes aggressive and slams the door in my face? Or throws a tantrum at the store and everyone is staring? The reality of emotions is that they will come and go… but some moments seem to last forever! In this fascinating interview with beloved parenting expert, Dr. Siggie Cohen, we dive into one of our most-requested topics: ADHD and emotional regulation.
