When your child hits, shouts, or lashes out… it’s easy to see defiance.

But what if it’s actually defence?

In the primary years, the fight response isn’t a choice. It’s a brain on high alert, reacting to a perceived threat. Their body floods with energy, their thinking brain goes offline, and survival takes over.

It can look like anger.
It can feel like aggression.
But underneath, it’s a child who doesn’t feel safe.

This is their voice… from the inside of the fight response.

Because when we understand what’s really happening, we stop asking, “How do I stop this behaviour?”
And start asking, “What does my child need right now?”

Girl version will also be posted.

My grandmother once said to me that a woman who lost her husband after 70 years of marriage: “Died of a broken heart” at the time I was a child and I actually thought the heart broke into two….the reality is the heart changes shape when impacted by such strong emotions such as grief, and for a period of time the heart is enlarged and doesn’t pump blood as well as it should.

There was some truth to what she said…

Look after yourself when in times of grief and loss 🥰🙏🏾
