Ep #213 Signal, Not Defiance
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When kids go “off track,” it’s easy to see the behavior as disrespect, defiance, or a problem that needs fixing.
In this episode, I reframe behavior as information, a signal from a dysregulated nervous system, not a character flaw.
You’ll learn:
- What off-track behavior is actually telling you
- Why punishment and rewards rarely create lasting change
- How to stay calm, connected, and in the lead when things go sideways
- A simple recovery approach that protects the relationship and restores boundaries
