05. Taming Emotional Outbursts: Helping Kids with Big Emotions
In Session 5: Taming Emotional Outbursts: Helping Kids with Big Emotions from Heart-Based Approach to Parenting, Dave and Marsha talk on the podcast about Dr. Scott Turansky’s practical approach to guiding children through intense feelings. As they reflect on his insights, they discuss how emotional outbursts often signal deeper heart issues—frustration, overwhelm, or unmet needs—and how parents can respond with calm structure instead of escalating the moment. Their conversation highlights tools like teaching children to pause, identify feelings, and practice simple calming strategies, all while maintaining connection. Dave and Marsha emphasize that helping kids manage big emotions is not about suppressing feelings, but about training the heart to respond wisely, leading to greater self-control and confidence.
