A short parenting-advice excerpt advising parents not to take children's challenging behavior personally. The speaker explains that children 'ping' caregivers as a way to orient themselves rather than as deliberate attacks, and recommends parents avoid becoming dysregulated in response.

Chapters

I think that's what our children are doing. They're pinging us. They're sending out behavior. And it often reads as being aggressive or trying it on or being highly disobedient. But what they're trying to do is orient themselves. And that in itself is a game changer right there. Just having that understanding. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because if we understand that, then we can look at a child, and if we know we're getting pinged, the first thing. There's a couple of things that happen, but the first thing is we don't take it personally. We know we're getting pinged because, Todd, you know this as much as anyone. A lot of this is being able to actually not go down that route of dysregulation ourselves.
