That sounds like a fantastic resource, Sue! You are so right about supporting and acknowledging children when they are upset. Empathy goes a long way! I really appreciate your comment :).

I really liked your analogies for the different kinds of ways kids meltdown. I think you’ve really hit the nail on the head with your list of reasons why kids get upset. As far as suggestions for comforting kids, I found that the book “How to Talk So Kids Will Listen, and Listen So Kids Will Talk.” really helped me learn what I could say to my child when in the midst of a meltdown to support and acknowledge his upset feelings. Best, Sue
