Chapter 4: Signals - When the Tank is Empty
Do you normally let your fuel tank run out before refilling your car? Or do you visit the gas station before the guage hits empty? When our child's "tank" is empty, they "signal" with behaviors that are a desperate attempt to get their needs met. We often mistake their signals for "bad behavior" which we immediately try to shut down. When we do, it's like getting frustrated at our car's fuel light for blinking. Like trying to get the signal to turn off instead of heading for the nearest gas station to give our car what it needs. So what do you do when your child's signals are going off? Listen now to learn how to fill their tank!
