For many children, the school environment serves as a stage where they put on a strong facade, dealing with the complexities of social interactions, academic demands, and the expectations of teachers and peers. They learn to mask their emotions and manage their behaviors to fit into the structured routines of the classroom, often striving to meet the pressures placed upon them. However, once the school day ends and they return home, the walls they’ve carefully constructed throughout the day can come crashing down.

This is one of the most commonly asked topics among parents whom I encounter. That's why this episode delves into the complex reasons behind why children can hold it together at school yet seem to fall apart at home. By understanding this matter, parents can better support their children in managing their emotional worlds and foster an environment that encourages open communication and emotional expression.

Children’s behaviors can often shift suddenly and dramatically, leaving parents feeling concerned. One moment, a child may be engaged, playful, and eager to learn; the next, they might exhibit signs of frustration, withdrawal, or hyperactivity. More often than not, these abrupt changes reflect deeper issues within the nervous system, such as dysregulation caused by a variety of stressors.

That's why in this episode, we talk about how crucial it is to remain attuned to children's behaviors and recognize that sudden changes can often indicate deeper emotional or sensory challenges. By paying attention to these behaviors, parents and caregivers can gain valuable insights into what might be affecting their child's emotional state, allowing them to address potential triggers proactively.
