Science Backed Solutions for Children’s ADHD, Executive Functioning and Anxiety Dysregulation
A common notion as regards anger is that it is a deliberate act of defiance or a lack of respect, but in reality, it is often a sign of nervous system dysregulation. When children become angry, they are not necessarily choosing to misbehave; rather, they are struggling with overwhelming emotions they have not yet learned to regulate. Understanding anger through this lens allows us to respond with empathy rather than frustration, helping children develop healthier ways to process their emotions.
Instead of resorting to yelling or punishment, which can heighten dysregulation, there are more effective ways to support an angry child. With the right tools, we can help them process their emotions in a way that builds self-regulation and resilience. In this episode, we’ll explore practical strategies to redirect anger, foster emotional growth, and break the cycle of frustration. By shifting our approach, we can teach children lifelong coping skills that help them manage big emotions in a healthy way.
