Third Thursdays - Beyond the Behavior
Event Description
Third Thursdays - Beyond the Behavior
Join us for Third Thursdays, a monthly evening parent support group offering practical tools, meaningful conversation, and support for everyday parenting.
This session will focus on practical strategies for regulation, connection, and understanding the child’s unmet needs. We will explore behavior as communication, structured choices, reduce demands during escalation, building regulation toolboxes, and repair after conflict.
Connect with other parents, share experiences, and walk away with ideas and tools to help parents move from reacting to behavior to understanding and responding to the need behind the behavior.
What you’ll gain:
- Practical strategies, such as co-regulation and de-escalation
- Strategies for reducing power struggles and increasing cooperation
- Skills for offering structured choices and setting limits effectively
- Increased ability to support their child’s emotional and behavioral needs
Free to attend. Registration required.
