Each step employs a framework that is easy to remember, even when emotions run high: you ground yourself, you connect with your kid, you work with them to understand the catalyst and the issue at the heart, and then together you get curious about finding an empowered solution. Backed by science and tested by hundreds of thousands of families, Calm the Chaos is a revolutionary road map complete with in-the-trenches stories, scripts, prompts, and worksheets that make it simple for parents to build a safe home and support healthy kids"--From surviving the storm to thriving every day -- Stage one: surviving the storm -- Stage two: your energy reserves -- Stage three: the calm at the center of the storm -- Stage four: no more storm chasing -- Stage five: building a storm-proof infrastructure -- What now?
