No items found.

When we help our children see the needs beneath their behavior we give them the opportunity to learn how to articulate their needs instead of acting them out.

It is not enabling a child to help them see the dignified need beneath a problematic behavior. It is empowering them. This is the crux of a secure parent child dynamic.
