All behavior is communication. 🧠✨
The silence.
The meltdown.
The eye roll.
The clinginess.
The shutdown.
It’s not “attention-seeking.”
It’s connection-seeking.
Behind every behavior is a need trying to be met — safety, belonging, autonomy, understanding, rest, reassurance. When we shift from “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?” or “What do you need right now?” everything changes.
Curiosity over control.
Connection over correction.
Regulation before expectation.
Listen to the behavior — it’s speaking. 💬
