Description

One way we can support the siblings of kids with big, baffling behaviors is to teach them about owls, watchdogs, and possums (or some way to understand the brain and behaviors) as well as to teach them about nervous system vulnerabilities and ‘overactive’ watchdog and possum brains!

In this episode, you’ll learn

  • Steps to take when teaching siblings about owls, watchdogs, and possums so they won’t feel like you’re just excusing bad behavior
  • The importance of validating your kids’ experience that the way you parent their sibling is unfair
  • A couple scripts for talking to your children about their sibling’s watchdog and possum brain (available on my website by CLICKING HERE)
