222. Summer Sensory Overload (And How to End It)

If your kid could just handle the regular every day stuff your summer would be much more enjoyable, right?   Maybe it's the splashing sounds at the pool that suddenly overwhelm your child's senses.   Or the booming fireworks that terrify them despite your assurances it will be okay.   Heck, it could even be putting on sunscreen before a fun beach day that sets them off.   In the moment, you rack your brain trying to figure out how to "fix" the situation and talk them down.    You beg, reason, reassure - anything to avoid the public meltdown.   Yet no matter what logical explanations you provide, the emotional storm still rages.   Listen to learn more.
