Yeah. I think there's still provocations. I just think that they're quick. It doesn't take as much, right? And so it doesn't take as much of a provocation to make someone mad. OK. And it still comes from a combination of upbringing, probably some genetics, that people are more likely to be angry much of the time. And so it still comes from that place.

What are parenting strategies to assist kids with coping with anger? Yeah. Like not feeling anger very often or – yeah, like what are some of those do you feel like? Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I mean, I think for what I would say is there's when it comes to kids, one of the probably the most important things to do is help them develop the tools that allow them to sort of find ways to decrease their anger in the moment. Right. And that's oftentimes for kids going to be deep breathing. It's going to be distraction is actually a really good one.

So find something else you can do for a little while. Maybe it's we talked about drawing earlier. Maybe it's playing with Legos. Maybe it's petting your dog, whatever. Things like that that allow you to sort of de-escalate. The other side of it is helping kids identify where they have some control.

And this is harder with kids because I think they have a little less control in their day-to-day life. Where can kids have control in their surroundings, in their environment? How can they sort of do less of the things that might provoke anger? My other son is a diehard basketball fan, and he's a player and fan. And so we've been watching the NBA quite a bit. I'm from Minnesota originally.
