@sadiebreann_: we’re doing this when we start to feel our temperature rise NOT when it’s already hot ok!!! #overwhelmedmom #momhack #relatable #relatablemom #momrage
A big one for me was around dinner time. Everyone is tired, everyone is hungry and I am in a rush against the clock before we are losing our collective minds. One day I realized dinner didnt HAVE to be meat/carb/vegetables. I could serve the veggies 20-30 minutes before the meal. Then no one was "ruining their appetite" with snacks, if they did end up not super hungry at dinner at least they ate some veggies and I could reheat their dinner in a half an hour but at least then I got to cook dinner in peace. It gets easier once you figure out how to avoid being triggered. Kudos to you for putting in the work. It's tough!!

What helps me through the whining is to model how I want to be approached with a request. I use the exact tone and inflection that I expect, but keep it very simple. It’s taken forever to take effect, but it at least creates a pause for me to take a breath

I’ve started saying to myself, “They’re just being kids.” This helps because I realized I was getting so triggered subconsciously because I was never allowed to act the way my kids do. I allow them to have emotions and express them which was something I was not allowed to do and was taught is bad.

Whining sends me too and a big one is when the olders are being loud and it’s going to wake the newborn. Today I used your tip of regulating when I’m at a 4-5 or before I get to an 8 or 9 because it’s sooo true that by the time you’re that overstimulated it’s too late

Thank you for teaching things we can do to ourselves - to fix ourselves. Not just trying to teach our kids to be different

I felt this so much!! What about when the whining is not able to be solved? My 3 year old doesn’t want to brush her teeth? Is this when pick your battles come in?

What if I feel like he’s just doing it to bug me or does things on purpose ? I’m a single mom to a 21 month old and I’m so exhausted and don’t even know what to do anymore. He only acts out or bad tantrums with me. With his dad, at daycare and with others he doesn’t act like that. I tell myself it’s just the age and I know that’s probably true. But how do I ignore the behavior and still make sure he turns into a respectful kind boy?
