Your why isn’t about their why or how they got there…

Rather it’s the Why of your response.

Often there are a range to whys for not being centred in a storm. These can include:

• Social judgement.
• Feeling like a failure as a parent.
• Wanting your child to be happy.
• A sense of unpreparedness on how to deal with the emotions well, so wanting the storm to pass.
• Past trauma from how emotions were dealt with when you were little. (ie, how your parents dealt with your tantrums.)
