Behavior is a signal, not the problem.
You cannot fix what you do not see.
Regulation comes before correction.

When we address what is below the surface, the behavior above the surface begins to change.

After 30 years of helping kids and parents regulate their nervous systems,

Here's something I have never seen parents being told,
Behavior isn’t misbehavior.

It’s communication from the nervous system.
When a child is impulsive, reactive, shut down, or explosive,
their brain isn’t choosing that response
it’s signaling stress.

A dysregulated nervous system can’t access logic, self-control, or problem-solving.
So when we focus on correcting behavior instead of regulating the nervous system,
we miss the message entirely.
Regulation always comes first.

Why Treating Kids “The Same” Fails Dysregulated Children 💔

One of the most common parenting myths sounds fair… but actually causes more harm.

Treating every child the same ignores what their nervous system regulation actually needs.

Some kids require different supports to stay regulated especially when emotional dysregulation in children is part of the picture.

And siblings who witness this need validation too, not to be brushed aside.

That’s how we protect kids’ emotional development and reduce resentment instead of fueling it.

Parent Note:
Fair doesn’t mean identical. It means responsive.

📣 This is the last session in our Lifeline series, and it’s one you won’t want to miss.

On February 19, we’re talking about something so many parents struggle with every day:
Why smart, capable kids still struggle so much with school.

We all want our children to succeed at school.
We want them to feel confident, engaged, and capable.
But even bright, curious kids can struggle when stress, emotional overload, and regulation challenges shut down focus, planning, and learning.

In this live Lifeline session, we’ll explore:

✨ What really makes school feel so hard for kids
✨ Why pushing harder often backfires
✨ How stress, executive functioning, and nervous system overload affect learning
✨ What parents can do differently to support focus and resilience

This session is happening February 19.
It’s the final one in this series, and we’re making it count.

What Is Device Dysregulation and Why Is It Rewiring Kids’ Brains? 🧠

Screens don’t just entertain kids.
They quietly retrain what the brain expects to feel normal.

Ask a nervous system to handle constant intensity, and it will struggle with patience, focus, and calm.

That’s not a character issue. It’s a tolerance issue tied to emotional dysregulation in children and disrupted nervous system regulation.

When stimulation stays high, the brain forgets how to come back down.

That’s when reactivity shows up, especially during quiet or unstructured moments and kids’ emotional development takes a hit.

👉 Regulation Reminder:
You don’t have to eliminate screens to support regulation.

You’re teaching the brain how to recover from stimulation and return to calm.

Have you noticed your child getting more reactive when things slow down?

If you have ever thought,
“There has to be a better way than this,”
you are exactly who this book is for.

The Dysregulated Kid was written to take the pressure off parents who have been trying so hard and still feel like nothing is working.

It offers a clear, compassionate path forward for supporting kids who struggle with emotional dysregulation, without blame, shame, or endless trial and error.

This book is about understanding, not fixing.
Support, not control.
And giving families a way forward that actually feels doable.

Pre-orders are now open, with special bonuses available for a limited time.

You do not have to figure this out alone. 💜

So many parents are focused on changing behavior.
They try strategy after strategy, and nothing seems to last.

There is a simple reason this keeps happening.

Most parenting tools are introduced when a child is already overwhelmed, flooded, and no longer able to think clearly.

After reviewing more than 10,000 brain maps of children with emotional dysregulation, one thing is clear to me.

When the nervous system is dysregulated, a child cannot access self control.
They cannot process information.
They cannot respond the way we expect them to.

That understanding is what led me to write The Dysregulated Kid.

This book teaches parents how to support regulation first, so learning, listening, and behavior change can finally follow.

Valentine’s Day is a beautiful reminder of something I see every day in my work.

Love changes the brain.

Not perfect parenting. Not elaborate celebrations. But the steady, safe, consistent kind of love.

When you stay connected during big emotions, you are teaching your child’s nervous system what safety feels like. When you hold boundaries with calm, you are building resilience. When you choose connection over control, you are wiring emotional strength.

For over 30 years, I’ve watched this truth play out again and again.
Regulation grows in relationship.

So today, please remember that your patience, your presence, and your commitment to understanding your child are doing more than you think.

That is real love

If you believe connection is powerful, follow this space with heart.

This book has what most parenting advice is missing.

It has a clear explanation of emotional dysregulation that actually makes sense.
It has a step by step way to understand what is happening in your child’s brain and nervous system.
It has practical tools you can use in real life, not just in calm moments, but when things feel hard.

The Dysregulated Kid is not a list of tricks or consequences. It is a parenting playbook for families who are tired of guessing and ready for clarity.

Inside, you will learn why behaviors escalate so quickly, why traditional strategies often fail, and how to support your child in a way that builds regulation instead of more stress.

Pre-orders are now open, and there are special bonuses available for a limited time.
