EP 189: How to Help Siblings During a Meltdown

The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}

If you are a regular listener here on The Baffling Behavior Show, big, baffling behaviors and big meltdowns are no longer surprising in your home.

Even if we can’t predict those moments of 'Back-Off or, 'Attack' Watchdog, "Shut Down' or, 'Play Dead' Possum, we can predict that it is going to happen again.

You can create felt safety for the other children in your home by making a plan.
In this episode, you’ll learn

• Key things to consider when making a plan for what siblings should do during a meltdown
• Scripts for how to talk to your other children about the plan
• How to empower siblings to get help when they recognize lower level cues and clues of the watchdog or possum pathway in their sibling

Resources mentioned in this podcast:

• Focus on the Nervous System to Change Behavior {EP 84}
