- Identify your triggers. What were the main stressors for you at the time? Were you already feeling stressed or tired? Reflect on how these factors might have influenced your reaction.
- Assess your response. How did you respond to your child's meltdown? Were you able to stay calm or did you feel overwhelmed? Be honest with yourself and try to write without judgment.
- Explore the alternative responses. Let's think about how you might handle a similar situation in the future. What strategies could you use to stay calm and support your child better?
