@mindfulnessparenting: That slammed door isn't defiance. When a teenager screams or slams a door, it's usually a dysregulated nervous system with nowhere else to put what it's feeling. It looks like disrespect. It's actually a storm looking for somewhere to land — and your teen is choosing you as the safe place to land it. You don't have to fix the outburst. You just have to stay. Kids remember the adults who stayed. You're not raising a difficult child. You're raising someone who still trusts you enough to fall apart in front of you. #parentingteens #teenmentalhealth #nervoussystemregulation #consciousparenting #safespace
