Understanding Your Child’s Behavior Through Managing Your Triggers

Understanding a child’s behavior can help us become aware of our own emotional triggers and reactions. 

Children are an extension of ourselves. We pass on traits to our children, and  how we model influence them growing up. And so what we experienced as children is likely what we pass on or show our kids. As a result, a child can mirror back even the unresolved issues we had as a child. 

With this in mind, healing and managing our child’s behavior, helps in healing our own emotional triggers as well. Once we become aware of these feelings, we start responding instead of reacting. We resolve to empathize with our child’s needs and emotions in chaotic situations.
