Q1. Is using distractions to stop a 7yo who is have a meltdown a valid way of teaching emotional regulation? Q2. 15 yr old with rare disease that won’t see a counsellor, but says he vapes and doesn’t care what he puts in his body because he doesn’t think he’ll live past 21 anyways ( which is not true).  Q3. How do I talk to my 15 yo daughter who is posting images of herself that are edgy.    Do you have a parenting question for me?  Email me at alyson@alysonschafer.com  Sign up for my monthly newsletter at www.alysonschafer.com Hosted on Acast.
