099: Child Melts Down, Parent Blows Up — No More! Scripts for Calm Connection with Author and Therapist Bryana Kappadakunnel

Have you ever blown up at your kid because they’re melting down?

Just wanted their bad behavior to STOP because you feel like a bad parent if it doesn’t?

Committed that you would parent differently than your parents, but see some cycles repeating you don’t like?

My guest today is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has seen a lot of hurting and struggling families in her decade-plus working with clients, and she brings some of the best scripts I’ve ever heard to this interview today.

Get answers for issues like:

• Your teen says everyone else gets to do X and it’s not fair that she doesn’t!
• Your preschooler throws an epic 45-minute tantrum
• You try to put the child in time-out but it only makes things worse
• Your child’s behavior triggers anger or resentment
• Feeling like you have to choose between being a warm, connected parent and giving your kids chores and boundaries

Plus Bryanna tells us the two most important things we can say to our teens - and they’re good ones.

I know many parents are going to have a mindset shift after this one, and I can’t wait to hear what you think!
