In this month’s webinar, we talked about how parents can understand and manage their children’s difficult behaviors. Even when we’re not in quarantine, even when not in the holiday hype, kids’ meltdowns, tantrums, and defiance are incredibly hard. How do we reinstate peace and warmth in our homes without forming bad habits? Jill DiPietro, LCSW works with kids and parents on these issues all the time, and she brought some of her knowledge to us in this webinar. She explained the model for how these behavior patterns develop, how to build your “relationship bank”, and how to use reinforcements to shape the behaviors you want to see. Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani moderated questions from the audience at the end.
