Connecting with Children's Upset Feelings
When children are upset and behaving erratically, connecting with them does not mean giving them what they seem to want in the moment. Instead, true connection involves holding space and supporting their feelings to be expressed. It is about seeing and accepting their emotions, while continuing to do what needs to be done as the adult. Connection is primarily emotional support and acceptance, not trying to offer solutions or make the feeling stop.
