And the kid would just escalate, escalate, escalate, rigidly demanding his blue cup.

Now, dad didn't know about his sensory challenges, and that a lot of times when kids are super picky and rigid around stuff like that, it's because they're just trying to make his their worlds work.

in a more controlled way.

And maybe there was something about the feel of the blue cup versus the orange cup or you know, whatever it is.

But the dad would start yelling at the kid and the kid would um, you know, kick him and then the dad would say, You go to your room and the kid wouldn't go to his room so then dad would put him in his room and then hold the door shut so the kid couldn't get out and it was just a lose lose situation every day.

So I taught this dad.

I said when you have an angry look on your face and an angry tone of voice and an angry body posture, you're you're actually communicating a lot of threat.

And your child's reptilian brain is just responding to that because the brain cares about safety more than anything else.

And so what's happening is your child you're activating that reptilian brain.

So you're just gonna get fight flight freeze.

And if and it was always fight.

for this kid.

So I said, I want to see if we can activate a different response.

And I want you to and I was sort of an experiment at the time, but it's as I've taught it to people, it's the thing that the most people have come back to me to say, I cannot believe how well that works.

Um, so I taught the dad to sit below eye level, not at eye level, but below eye level.

So sitting on the floor, crisscross applesauce, leaning back on his arms.

In a relaxed posture.

So I say get below eye level and then I want you to only say two things.

Cause this was a dad that would yell and yell and yell.

And this kid had sensory challenges.
