Episode 140 Q&A: What To Do When Your Child Gets Highly Distressed After Making Mistakes

Jul 26, 2021

This weeks question is from Elizabeth,

“My son, who is 7 is still bursting into tears, yelling, stomping, and throwing things when he makes a mistake or doesn't get his way. It’s hard for him to self-regulate when he has reached his red zone.”

In today's Q&A, I'll be talking about strategies that can help your child learn to regulate their emotions as they go through developmental phases that can be overwhelming and challenging. We are going to cover a lot of ground; some specific parenting strategies you can try in the moment, some longer-term strategies that are critical to success, and some big picture things to be thinking about in terms of the underlying cause.

You can submit a question by emailing us at support@drbeurkens.com with the subject line "Podcast Question."
