“How your child treats you will not determine how they treat the rest of the world. Instead, how you treat your child will determine how they treat the rest of the world and themselves.” J. Milburn We are their safe place. Children don’t typically act the same with other authority figures, as they do with their parents. There is a connection and trust there that allows them to feel safe enough to crumble into our arms. They throw dirt at us because they know we are the only one’s who care to know what’s hidden in the debris. Disrespectful behaviour is usually misunderstood behaviour. It’s usually communication. It’s not a character defining moment when your child is emotionally dysregulated. We all become dysregulated at times. It’s important to normalize those feelings and model how to process emotions and offer grace.

Children who get too little sleep can have behavioral problems and might struggle in school. However, there's also evidence that suggests kids who don't get enough sleep may be at risk for health problems later in life. For example, one study of nearly 2,000 people found that those who slept less than six hours per night had an increased risk of death from heart disease over the next 14 years compared to those who slept seven hours per night. Another study found that children who reported sleeping less than nine hours per night had lower mind development and neurocognitive improvement levels than those who got more shut-eye each night.

“Mess is my biggest trigger. How am I supposed to avoid that with 3 kids?” You can’t! That’s why we’re learning skills to process the triggers we can’t avoid like mess, whining, crying, disobedience, etc. Parenting brings up triggers that we can’t avoid, such as mess. I think the impulse for many is to resolve this trigger by constantly trying to keep things clean. The thing is, this often suppresses the feeling and perpetuates the cycle of frustration and anxiety. Let’s look at some of the very valid reasons why mess can be overwhelming. - Reflection of your worthiness as a parent/partner - Feel overwhelmed by too much clutter - Feel unappreciated - Feel unsupported - Sensory overload - Feeling disorganized - Feel like all the house work is your responsibility - Feel like others don’t respect the space the way you do - Feel tired with the constant work So all of these are very valid reasons to feel triggered. Now with a trigger like this, we are not INVALIDATING. We are validating the emotions. So instead of trying to talk yourself out of these feelings, your going to validate them. Why? Because YOUR TRIGGER IS VALID!! Once you’ve validated yourself, you can self-regulate and once your are self-regulated, you can think about how you want to deal with the situation.
