Key Takeaways:
- • Shouting often comes from parents feeling overwhelmed; recognising triggers and taking steps to regulate emotions can help reduce shouting.
- • Co-regulation is key: parents can model calmness and emotional regulation for their children, which can lead to better emotional responses from them.
- • Singing or using your voice in other ways can be a surprising but effective tool for calming both yourself and your child in heated moments.
- • Small, consistent steps in emotional regulation throughout the day can prevent end-of-day exhaustion and shouting.
- • Good parenting isn't about being perfect; it's about being "good enough" and learning to repair relationships after difficult moments.
