Just the way the kid is communicating, I'm stuck.
There are expectations I'm having difficulty meeting.
So as you said, uh that's not necessarily time to kick in with the consequences, since in all likelihood
The kid already knows what behavior you'd prefer that he exhibit instead, and what behaviors you are not so keen on.
I've betting he's been clear on that for a very long time.
The opportunity is in viewing the behavior as the signal and figuring out what's really going on, what unsolved problem preceded that behavior.
And how can we work together with this kid to try to get that problem solved?
Well, ninety nine percent of the problem solving you want to be doing is proactive and planned.
And that's made possible by the fact that these unsolved problems I've been talking about, whether it's difficulty brushing teeth before bed or difficulty getting to bed on time at night.
Or difficulty waking up for school in the morning or difficulty getting the math homework done or difficulty taking out the garbage on Tuesdays or difficulty getting away from the screen to come in for dinner, w whatever the unsolved problems are.
They're highly predictable.
What I find is that families but also classroom teachers
are um having
are finding that th these unsolved problems are the same every day, every week, every month.
And the nice thing about that is that it makes them predictable.
If they're predictable, then we can make a list of them before we do anything else.
We can decide which ones we want to work on now and which one we want to work on at another point.
And then we can start solving those problems proactively.
So uh one of the big shifts in the model that has occurred since the explosive child came out in nineteen ninety eight, which um is coming up on twenty years ago, doesn't seem quite that long, but uh it has been.
Um, is that the original version of the explosive child was written primarily about what you do in the heat of the moment.
