Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 211: Parenting Scripts for Stressed Out Moments with Kids, with Dr. Adele Lafrance · 1 Jun 2020 podcast

And that is really something that you value.

It's part of your identity.

And I know that your dream is to get into one of the best universities.

And so it totally makes sense to me that you might be disappointed.

And sweetheart, now we're going to move into emotional and practical support.

I totally believe that this mark is not going to define you.

And if you want, we can look over what you didn't capture or even ask your teacher for some extra help.

So I really like that chapter because it kind of gives some love to kids who have those perfectionist tendencies where the knee-jerk responses might be more of what they experience more of the time.

I think that the but to because strategy is far and away the strategy that the most parents have come back to say like, thank you.

I couldn't remember all the other things that you said or that I read, but I was able to remember to move from but to because.

And even though I couldn't think of three reasons why my child might be having a meltdown because of the snack that I gave her,

I was able to come up with two and I saw that decrease happen.

So that's the first kind of major takeaway.

The second major takeaway is about circling back, about doing over.

When we were writing this book, generally speaking, I was worried about being one more voice in the parenting world about this is what you should do.

And parents are stressed out enough by...

being the best they can be, especially in our current circumstances.

And I want parents to know that do-overs can happen, and they can be just as meaningful, if not more meaningful, than getting it right the first time, and that there is no time limit.

I've done do-overs with parents 30 years later, and they have been absolutely transformational.

Absolutely.
