When You’re Not Sure How to Support Your Child

“When I’m not sure how to support my child, I focus on my own regulation.” This quote captures one of the most powerful truths in parenting. Children look to us as their guide, and when we are calm, steady, and grounded, it helps them feel safe and secure.

When your child is struggling, you don’t always need to have the perfect words or immediate solutions. What matters most is your presence and the tone you set. If you can slow your breathing, lower your voice, and calm your body, your child will naturally begin to mirror that energy.

Regulation is not about ignoring your child’s needs—it’s about creating the conditions where they feel safe enough to regulate themselves. By modeling calm in the middle of chaos, you teach your child resilience, patience, and emotional awareness.

It’s okay to pause before responding. It’s okay to step away for a moment to gather yourself. The best support you can give your child is showing them that big feelings can be handled with care, and that no storm lasts forever.

When in doubt, start with you. Your calm is their anchor.

Behavior Is Communication, Not Defiance

Children never choose to be dysregulated. When they act out, melt down, or shut down, they aren't being bad—they’re sending a message that something feels too big for them to handle. Their nervous system is overwhelmed, and they’re doing the best they can with the tools they have in that moment.

Instead of seeing the behavior as something to punish, we can respond with curiosity and compassion. Ask: What are they trying to express? What do they need to feel safe again? Regulation isn’t taught through fear—it’s built through connection.

When we respond with support, not shame, we teach our children that all emotions are safe—and that help is always available.
