Some children do their learning by living large and pushing the boundaries. Join our discussion of how expressions of emotion can be a valued, creative force for connecting with others. We will also consider how these intense moments can be turned into valuable opportunities for your child to practice autonomy and mastery. Bring your examples and learn how to not fight, not give-in, and proactively prepare coping strategies for your child’s next most intense emotional moment.
