NOTE

Helping Children Manage Stress and Impulsivity

Children, unlike adults, struggle with managing stress, often entering the 'yellow zone' or acting out of the 'downstairs brain.' As parents, it is crucial to remain calm and physically intervene to assist children in distress instead of reacting with anger or frustration. Children need help and guidance during stressful moments, not just verbal commands or raised voices. Their impulsive behavior often stems from underlying stress, signaling a need for support and understanding from adults. By recognizing these cues and responding with empathy and assistance, parents can effectively help children navigate and manage their stress and impulsivity.
