Ep. 170: Why Kids Act Better for Other People

It’s very common for all humans- kids and adults- to have more behavior struggles and dysregulation. Kids with vulnerable nervous systems, as well as attachment trauma, are especially likely to demonstrate some confusing patterns with regard to where they are regulated and where they aren’t. 

In this episode, you’ll learn

• The neurobiology behind why it’s normal for kids (and adults) to behave better at school (or work or out shopping or wherever)
• How the connections in a family could be the trigger for dysregulation
• How all families tend to have moments that ebb and flow in dysregulation- this is normal

Resources mentioned in this podcast:

• The Tragedy of Disorganized Attachment (Part 5 of 6) {EP 38}
• Stress Response System {EP 94}
• When Connection Isn't Safe {158}
