The Extinction Burst: This is what psychologists mean when we say things may get a bit more difficult before they get better. Hang in there! It gets better.

Day 1 and 2 of your new bedtime routine: Your child actually goes to bed. You think "This is WORKING!"

Day 3: Your child screams for 45 minutes. Comes out of their room six times. Sobs that they're scared, their stomach hurts, they need water.

You're standing there thinking: "What did I do WRONG? I should just give up."

Here's what I need you to know: You didn't do anything wrong.

What you're seeing is actually PROOF your strategy is working.

There's a specific neurological reason why behavior gets worse right after you start a new plan. It's called an extinction burst—and if you don't understand what's happening, you'll quit right before breakthrough.

Most parents give up during the hardest week. They quit when the behavior spikes and it feels like everything is falling apart.

But that spike? That's the moment right before it clicks.

In this week's podcast episode, I break down exactly what's happening in your child's brain during this phase, why it's temporary, and how to push through without losing your mind.

You've got this! Check out this week's podcast to learn more about the Extinction Burst.

Dysgraphia is a neurological learning disability affecting writing, causing issues with spelling, legibility, word spacing, and expressing thoughts coherently, stemming from difficulties with motor skills, language processing, and visual-spatial abilities. It can manifest as messy handwriting, slow writing, poor grammar, or trouble organizing ideas, often appearing alongside dyslexia, and requires early intervention like specialized exercises, extended time, or typing to manage.
