Meltdowns are not tantrums. They are far more intense, go on longer, and happen at any age. They also can’t be stopped with the usual parenting tactics. In fact those tactics make them a lot worse. Join me as I take on the challenge of calming down the chaos of meltdowns and finding some peace in the madness

But perhaps you are completely lost about what else to do. In this week’s episode I’m going to give you the answer to that question.

There is no getting away from it – going to the SEND Tribunal is super stressful. Many parents understandably back away because they don’t feel they can cope. But if you do that then your child is not going to get the support they need and deserve. In this week’s episode I am going to help you understand what to expect at Tribunal and how to prepare emotionally.

Whether it is a phone, tablet or gaming device, many modern parents battle endlessly with their child to reduce screen time. I’m here to tell you to stop.

I’ve got some better, relationships first techniques, which I want to share with you.

If your child has started at a new school this September and your life has gone into meltdown, then this episode is going to be essential to you.

My last episode was about helping a child transition back to school from the summer holidays, but I know if your child is going through a new transition phase (that’s education tech speak for moving up an education level) then there can be very specific and intense difficulties. And they can go on well beyond day 1 or even week 1. So I want to provide you with some ideas on how you can manage things – because what happens in these first few weeks can make or break the entire year.
