    EP 299 Understaning Your Child's Signals During Overwhelm

    This episode explains how many intense behaviors are signals of overwhelm, not willful defiance. Learn to notice the early signs in your child's nervous system and respond with steady, matter-of-fact leadership—fewer words, slower pace, and a brief pause—so regulation can return before expecting control. You’ll get practical guidance on anchoring the moment, avoiding escalation, and building long-term resilience and trust. The episode also mentions QEEG brain mapping through Symmetry NeuroPT as a tool some families use to better understand the wiring behind behavior.

    EP 296 Pass the Test: Stay Steady When Kids Push Back

    Your child may not respond the way you want right away. And that does not mean you failed. It also does not automatically mean that your child is being defiant or manipulative or trying to push your buttons. It means your child is responding the best way they know how in that moment. They might be testing. They might be stuck. They might not have the words for what they need. And they might be digging in their heels because they don't see another option. As the parent, that's not something to take personally. That's information. And leadership starts with how you respond to that information. Welcome to the No Problem Parenting podcast, where we help parents lead with confidence, clarity, and steadiness—especially when kids push back. This podcast is for parents doing real life with real kids: no perfection, no pretending, just practical leadership that works in real homes. Instead of chasing immediate compliance, aim for steady leadership: clear tone, clear words, and consistent follow-through. Keep the status quo—life keeps moving—set predictable expectations, and resist rescuing responsibility. Over time, consistent leadership helps kids manage discomfort, trust reliability, and change behavior. If you want quick phrases for these moments or deeper support to prepare for and survive meltdowns, click this link or find more resources at noproblemparents.com. When Your Kid Pushes Back, Say This No fixing, no fluff—just steady leadership for real kids and real homes.

    EP 4 What is Reactive Attachment Disorder - Part 1

    Hello Parents! In today's episode, Part 1 - What is Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), I share how learning about the diagnosis in 1993 shifted my career path from serving children with special abilities to supporting kids with mental health diagnosis and their parents.  This episode just barely touches on the diagnosis and is definitely a brief introduction of what can happen when infants and toddlers experience early life trauma or separation from their primary caregivers. And, there are many children that have a rough start in life that do not develop these symptoms so this episode does not intend to diagnosis your child's behavior.    I'm sharing my experiences with the diagnosis in hopes that any parent (or child) that feels misunderstood, has tried everything, has been pushed to an emotional limit or has been blamed (or is shaming themselves) due to their child's behavior and/or how they are responding to their child's behavior; that they will find hope and support. In Part 2 I'll share more symptoms that children with Reactive Attachment Disorder or trauma disorders can display and I'll share a few tips and resources on how to respond to and help children who are truly afraid to trust their caregivers. When we seek first to understand why our children are behaving the way they are and when we prepare ourselves for "the worst", we can respond as the confident leaders our kids crave us to be.   To learn more about Reactive Attachment Disorder and to find clinical support for your child go to https://attach.org/ To learn more about how to become a No-Problem Parent™ go to No Problem Parents And please share this episode with the people in your community.  Too often children with this diagnosis appear to be just fine to their extended family and community while their parents are judged and looked down upon for how they discipline their kids.  Don't assume it is the parents fault, especially if you knew the parents to be kind and loving people before they had children.  Children with Reactive Attachment Disorder often reserve their toughest behaviors for their parents and can "hold it together" in front of others.  Parents raising these children need our support and understanding so please learn more about why the parent is frustrated or hurting and then support the child -  by supporting the parent.   Hugs and High Fives, Jaci
