What is Passive Aggressive Behavior and How To Nip it in the Bud + Understanding Behaviors Masterclass
Hey there,
Did you know that children who learn healthy communication skills are more likely to succeed academically and socially?
Unfortunately, passive-aggressiveness, while all too common, is not a healthy form of communication.
Many kids resort to passive-aggressiveness because it feels like an easy way to handle problems without direct confrontation. However, for the person on the receiving end, it can be incredibly frustrating and may lead to resentment, potentially damaging even the closest relationships.
We definitely don't want that for our kids! Our goal is to help them recognize their emotions and resolve conflicts in a mature, emotionally intelligent way.
In our article today, Jennifer Poindexter, a mother of three boys, offers insights into passive-aggressive behavior. She explains how to recognize it in our children and provides practical tips to help them overcome it. It's a fascinating read. Check it out!
Our featured masterclass this week is the Understanding Behaviors Masterclass with Dr. Mona Delahooke based on her book Beyond Behaviors: Using Brain Science and Compassion to Understand and Solve Children's Behavioral Challenges.
Dr. Delahooke is a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 30 years of experience, and holds the highest level of endorsement in the field of infant and toddler mental health in California, as a Reflective Practice Mentor (RPM).
In this masterclass Dr. Mona shares with us:
How to better understand what is behind our child’s most challenging behaviors
Why practicing co-regulation with kids is more important than teaching them self-regulation
Why our own self-compassion and self-regulation skills matter so much
Tips for reaching children when they seem unreachable
And so much more!
If your child's behaviors sometimes feel like a mystery to you, and you are ready to solve it, this powerful masterclass is the perfect fit for you!
