Hey Proactive Parents,
Do you remember gym class obstacle courses?
Now imagine running that course blindfolded. Sometimes that’s how childhood feels without a parent who understands their needs.
I don't know about you but I never wanted to be the first one on the course, so I usually waited to see what NOT to do before running it myself.
As a young parent, you can do the same thing. Learn from seasoned parents who've already navigated the terrible twos, the sleepless nights, first-day-of-school fears, and the emotional roller coaster almost every kid goes through eventually.
Think back to your own childhood.
Remember how big the world felt.
Remember how small problems, felt like a big disaster, because you didn’t know how to handle them yet.
Your child is living that same reality right now.
Many times, what we label as “bad behavior” is really just a child fighting for connection, attention, and emotional safety.
The key is learning how to recognize the signs before things escalate.
That's why I created "8 Signs Your Kid Is In Survival Mode". It's a free guide that shows you exactly what to look for *before* the meltdown happens.
It reveals the most common behaviors kids display when their internal world is overwhelmed, overloaded, or under-connected.
This guide will help you understand what your child might really be saying underneath the "bad behavior."
And start seeing your child's behavior through a completely different lens. You'll shift from reacting to the behavior to responding to the need. That’s the foundation of Proactive Parenting.
