Do you know the difference between a tantrum and a meltdown? 🤔

They might look the same on the surface, loud, emotional, and intense, but they come from very different places.
✨ A Meltdown is rooted in emotional overwhelm and distress.
✨ A Tantrum is goal driven and often linked to an unmet want.

Understanding the difference helps us respond with empathy, the right boundaries, and tools to support our children effectively. 💛

💜 Children don’t need us to fix their feelings — they need us to feel with them.

When we stay calm and connected, they learn how to borrow our peace until they can find their own. 🌈

✨ Stay With Me — a gentle reminder that connection calms more than correction ever could.
