We all have bad days… and so do kids. 💛
Sometimes we expect kids to manage their emotions better than we do to stay calm, listen, and handle big feelings with perfect composure. But here’s the truth: their brains aren’t even fully developed yet! The part that helps with emotional control and problem-solving is still under construction well into their twenties.
So if we, as adults, lose patience or feel overwhelmed sometimes, it’s only fair to remember that kids will too.
Let’s give them (and ourselves) some grace. Instead of asking “What’s wrong with you?” try “What’s going on for you?” 💬 That small shift helps kids feel understood and teaches them that it’s okay to be human, to have hard moments, and to keep growing through them. 🌱
