Parenting Little Kids with Big Feelings

Sometimes called "spirited" or "deeply feeling", highly sensitive children are "more likely to have challenges regulating their big emotions because their brains are wired to process and react to their experiences in the world more deeply than other children." Claire Lerner, a licensed social worker and author of "Big Reactors: Practical Strategies for Parenting Highly Sensitive Children", join us to talk about how to recognize the temperament traits of highly sensitive children, the pros and cons of various parenting approaches, and how clinicians can support families with highly sensitive kids.
