As much as we try to put things in place to help our kids feel prepared, there will always still inevitably be an element of uncertainty in life.

Here is one thing I have done to support my child with this ✨

If your child falls apart after school, it can feel confusing, especially when you hear they were “fine all day.”

But it is important to remember, our kids have probably worked really hard to hold it together all day.

Following rules. Concentrating. Navigating friendships. That all takes a lot of energy.

By the time they get home, their nervous system is exhausted, and home is the place they feel safest to let it all out.

So those after-school meltdowns?

They’re not a sign something is wrong with your child or your parenting.

They’re a sign your child has been coping all day.

Try offering a softer landing. Think connection, food, and a bit of space and time for regulation before questions.

Save this for your next school pick-up ❤️

Lost your cool with your kid today?

We dream of magical holidays with our kids, but the reality is the days can be long, our kids fighting can be relentless, and the meltdowns can feel as though they last for hours.

You aren’t alone, and you aren’t a bad parent.

The magic is in the repair ❤️
