And it probably does feel like a lot.
voice-verified
But it's also fairly typical for that to happen.
voice-verified
Now, that said, you know, I'm always curious about the underlying why.
voice-verified
And so it's like, what's the underlying why around the tension around transition?
voice-verified
And so it's like, you know, transition before bed.
voice-verified
Well, we don't want to go to bed or we don't want to go to school.
voice-verified
And so what can we do is we can get all, you know, there's like this,
voice-verified
nervous energy or this anxious energy or just big energy.
voice-verified
And they can be getting what I call shadow payoffs from utilizing that energy in ways that are not ideal for parents.
voice-verified
And so I always like to think about, okay, they're, you know, in these situations, are they getting shadow payoffs?
voice-verified
And a shadow payoff is just like, they're getting something
voice-verified
from the experience that is not ideal, but they're still getting something from it.
voice-verified
And so that can look like the parent, I mean, it can look like them wrestling, like, so they're getting a shadow payoff from their siblings.
voice-verified
And so they're getting to have some of that energy burned off.
voice-verified
The parent might engage in a way where it's like, you know, increase in energy, it might be yelling, it might be, you know, like,
voice-verified
giving ultimatums and all of that stuff, which as an adult, you're thinking like, how is that a payoff?
voice-verified
But they're still getting a different kind of attention and they're getting a different, you know, they're getting energy that might be meeting their own energy.
voice-verified
And so I'm always curious about that in the sense of looking at, okay, well, what's working?
voice-verified
What's not working and what can we do different?
voice-verified
And to be able to zoom out and think about, okay, well, what's going on?
