Most parents don’t yell because they want to.
They yell because their nervous system is overwhelmed.
Before trying to change your reactions, it’s important to understand what triggers them:
- Feeling disrespected
- Feeling powerless
- Feeling overstimulated
- Feeling unsupported
When parents learn to regulate themselves, their responses naturally shift.
Parenting is often less about controlling behavior and more about expanding our capacity to stay present.
