If you know a child with big, baffling behaviors, then today’s episode is for you! If you don’t, stick around, because this conversation will open your eyes to the reasons behind behaviors you may have dismissed as being a result of “willful behavior” or “bad parenting.”
I am so grateful for my guest today, Fran Ballengee, LCMHC. She has become an expert on this subject working with children for many years as a licensed counselor. She also comes to this topic with personal experience, which she shares about on today’s episode. Fran is a gem, and I benefitted so much from this conversation. I think you will too!
Resources talked about in today’s podcast episode:
- Robyn Gobbel’s book, Raising Kids with Big, Baffling Behaviors and her podcast, The Baffling Behavior Show
- Dr. Mona Delahooke’s books, Beyond Behaviors and Brain-Body Parenting
- Stephen Porges, Ph.D.’s work on Polyvagal Theory
- The works of Bruce Perry, M.D., Ph.D.
May you be encouraged on your journey with Jesus!
