Big Feelings
“I hate you!” Have you noticed that your child has had more and more big feelings? These can be a sign of growing understanding about their own emotions and reactions to situations. Oftentimes, children can appear to be ‘taking it out’ on those at home. This is usually due to them feeling safest and most comfortable at home and allows them the safe place they need to practice their skills. This can mean we as adults need to have the skills to help them learn and grow. The Big Life Journal offers some great resources to assist in this area. Here is a sample that might help some out.
