EP 189: How to Help Siblings During a Meltdown
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
